There seem to have be 2 classes on the Humours at KWC&B 2012, I know I took
at least one of them:

*The Four Humours and Food Preparation* - *Lady Bernadette Blackthorne*
An introduction to the four traditional Humours and the role of Humoural
Theory in period food preparation.

*Applying Humoural Theory to Food Preparation* - *Lady Bernadette
Blackthorne*
An application of the Humoural principals to create a balanced menu.

I do not know if the Lady is on this site but she was very interesting to
listen to.
