> smattering of weddings, parties and suchnot.  I taught a bunch of

> the Dazey Seal-a-Meal.  One of my favorite activities involved a group
> of friends who would gather at my house weekly over a two-year period to
> redact recipes from one particular manuscript His Grace Cariadoc
> reproduced in his "Miscellany".  I helped start a Calontir Cooks Guild
> and originated the "Rolling Scone" magazine.  Around the time when the

> leaving a pile of unfinished manuscripts and projects and a load of
> guilt.
