[Sca-cooks] Great Brine Shrimp Scampi;

[Karen O]

The Mistress Maire explained about my earlier post:
> So the "brine shrimp" part of the shrimp scampi's probably just a name
added to regular ole shrimp scampi.She's actually just moaning about the
general non-periodness of the menus--stroganoff, shrimp scampi, and french
onion soup not exactly being period.....There are some -uhm- areas/people
resistant to more period ideas, or just plain not *aware* of all the
alternatives out in the big, wide world.....<

    I think what really twists my bloomers, is that this is their  25th
Anniversary!!  and they're having this "stuff"  {Maire, did you see WHO is
cooking?!}  and  I have knowledge that a  Cooking Guild resides within the
Barony, so where  ARE they to push for more authenticity??!!    I've been
{snottily} told that the Guild members  "don't cook  feasts."   Maybe they
are just a private club of back patters.

    Okay Constance,  I'm being snotty.  Please set the record straight about
Guild & it's members.
