[Sca-cooks] Current farm prices and affects on feast budgeting

[Elaine Koogler]

Yeah, our group thinks that giving me $8/head for a feast with "weird"
ingredients (Middle Eastern, Chinese, Japanese, etc.) is really a big deal.
Usually we do our feasts for around $5 - 6 a head.  But I suspect that the
increase this year in the cost of food may push that higher.
