[Sca-cooks] Outlands Crown Tournament Feast - What I'm planning...

[Susan Lin]

Aw - it would have been lovely for you to be here and to meet you in person.

I still hold out hope to some day to a completely period and documentable
feast.  I want to do it as a dinner event only - some period music and
dancing and food.  Still on my wish list.
