[Sca-cooks] Tudor Cooks Coming to US?

[Elise Fleming]

Greetings!  Johnna Holloway, Guillane de Vaux, Devra the Baker and I
visited Hampton Court at various times earlier this month and watched the
cooking group, Historia, prepare Tudor foods.  The "project coordinator",
Marc Meltonville, responded to an e-mail with the following:

>I do hope that we are able to bring our 'making a Tudor kitchen' lectures
>over to the East coast this summer. (snip)
>We should be speaking in D.C., and then on up towards Boston.
>If you know of any universities or establishments that would enjoy a talk
>from the team, do let me know.

So, I thought it might be good to send this out to you all in case any of
you on the eastern seacoast might have some connections with universities,
etc., who might want to have them come talk.  I do not know what fee they
would charge.  If you have a possible venue, drop me a line off list and I
will send Marc's e-mail address so you can pose the appropriate questions. 
They do cookery through at least the Georgian era so that may make for a
wider audience (Tudor, Stuart, Georgian) although they may prefer to stay
just with Tudor this time.  

I took lots of notes during my two-day visit to the kitchens.  I hope to
put them into some kind of sensible order and make them available to the
lists.  Got photos, too, which will eventually go online on a friend's
account.
