We had been planning on our standard  Pennsic dinner for the 
encampment--A Disk of Lentils (13th c. Andalusian), Rishta (13th 
middle eastern), rice and Murakabba. But we were hot and tired and 
have done it many times before, so ended up doing no cooking at all.

I did, however, bring with me bread of Abu Hamsa, Quince Preserves, 
and pickled eggplant, all from al-Warraq and all providing food that 
keeps and doesn't need to be cooked. We also had sausage, cheese, 
peaches, apples, melon, ...  .
