[Sca-cooks] return from Crusades

Here is another message that I thought I'd sent out but apparently didn't.

Ooh. That sounds like a really interesting class, although I shudder to think
of what *my* arms would look like if *I* was taking this class. In hindsight,
I think it might have been a good idea to stick to simple geometric shapes
instead of the ram's head. :-)

Did you have a class handout for this class? Or would you be interested in
writing, or working with such an author to create such an article? A set of
step-by-step photographs of some example arms would be a really nice way
to introduce folks to medieval sotelties and marzipan artistry.
