The East has many laurels who cook, but some of those predate the
concept of "his/her Laurel is for X", and others who cook, but were
officially recognized for something else, so the numbers of actual,
recognized cooking Laurels is perhaps smaller than elsewhere. We also
lost some people who would later become Laurels when Aethelmearc
became a kingdom in its own right.
We've got Brekke, Caterina von Nurnburg, Dante Felice (inactive?),
Johanna Dudley, Brighid nic Chiarain, Sinciefu (m.k.a. Cindy
Renfrow), Brigitte Flamen, Joram Goldspoons and myself. I'm sure
there are others I'm either forgetting, or misinformed as to their
primary area of specialization; maybe someone else can fill in the
gaps. I'm not sure if Brangwayna Morgan is "officially" a cooking
Laurel, and there's another lady in one of the PA groups (is her name
Catriona MacLeod?) who is recognized primarily for cookery, I think.
It sounds strange to list these folks and not include people like
Master Geoffrey d'Ayr, Aidan ni Leir, or Robin Argyle, (or, for that
matter, Jadwiga) but on paper, these gentles do other things more
than they cook, as far as I know.
The Eastern colors are purple, gold and green.
