[Sca-cooks] school woes was beverage ideas for a tea

[Susan Fox]

The ones I worry about are kids at schools closed due to flu 
situations.  Teachers and other employees too.  They are likely to miss 
key test dates and such, and who knows how long the closures may be?  
All those days need to be made up. 

Meanwhile back in the SCA, they keep moving Pennsic back to keep up with 
school schedules.  At this rate, Pennsic will start Memorial Day weekend 
soon.  :-)

Cheers,
Selene
