[Sca-cooks] Fwd: [CALONTIR] Taste of Calontir at Lilies

[Stefan li Rous]

We've talked about tasting tables here before as a way to encourage  
more people to try period foods.  Here is an announcement from the  
Calontir list showing some of their on-going efforts.

> Greetings Calontir!

> The Taste of Calontir table at Lilies has become a lovely tradition  
> – and the participating cooks are thrilled that so many attendees  
> are stopping by each year to try to various tastes of period food.   
> I wanted to let Calontir know that we will be continuing the  
> tradition this year, and currently have four different tables  
> planned.  We will be featuring an English, French, Italian and  
> Viking/Norse table, again under the permanent pavilion by the  
> archery at 7pm the first Saturday night.

> There will also be something new at the Taste of Calontir table this  
> year – a donations jar.  Each year our fabulous cooks create dishes,  
> tastes of which are shared with hundreds of people, and fund the  
> effort out of their own pockets.  So this year, we’ll be adding a  
> donations jar – and are asking that if you have the ability to do  
> so, please drop a few dollars in.  Monies collected will be split  
> between the tables participating (with a small amount going to the  
> guild).  These funds will help our cooks continue to feed you the  
> delectable morsels that they enjoy cooking and you enjoy eating.

> Looking forward to war!
