Do which?
1) Put it on my calendar and come by and watch:
   Certainly possible depending on when. Someone has to organize it and 
publicize it, though.
2) Cook on a team:
   Possibly. But not unless I had a stack of reference materials to work 
from. I'm not that good coming up with period recipes off the top of my 
head. Maybe my palm pilot with the Florilegium on the flash card. :-) 
But considering the talent evident at the SCA-Cooks pot luck there are 
more talented folks available. I'm rather in awe of the dishes I see 
being turned out in the various iron-chef contests detailed here.
3) Judge it:
   Sure. I like to eat. :-)
4) Organize it:
   Remember last year's Florilegium Tile Project? Some nice entries, but 
hardly a rousing turnout. And it is even later in the year now.
