[Sca-cooks] Congrats are in order...

HUZZAH!!!  I am SO pleased to hear this news.  Phlip is quite a special
Lady.  It might have been amusing to see her trying to act like one.

Yesterday, after months of activity on the part of a Vast Monarchic  
Conspiracy (with help from some others), Lady Philippa Ferraria (sp?),  
a.k.a. Phlip, was hunted down and hauled, kicking and screaming, into  
court at East Kingdom Twelfth Night, and there inducted into the Order  
of the Manche, which is the East's Order of High Merit for achievement  
in and service to the Arts and Sciences.

It can be given for surpassing competence in Diverse Arts or  
excellence in one or more. In Phlip's case recognition was for  
multiple arts, including metalworking and cookery.

I think technically the award was given, or was supposed to be given,  
at the Saint Andrew's/Baronial Investiture in the Barony of an  
Dubhaigeainn back in early November, but there was some sort of glitch  
and the actual court date had been rescheduled.

So congratulations to Lady Philippa! We're all thrilled to see you get  
this award, and also pretty amused as we watch you try to behave  
yourself ;-).
