Feasts

My earlier comment got me thinking - how many feasts have I done? I'm really not sure... most of the recipes I kept were on the 'computer that died'... I have a magazine rack with a wadge of folders stuffed in it, each one a different feast. But did I record and date them? Nah. I've done 12th night when it was in KG, a Polish feast, William Marshall this year, 2005, and 2003, Inter college war when it was on the Mornington Peninsula, the KG Feast of Seven Sins, the one Cormack autocratted not that long ago (Hugh and Teresa reign), several Fruits of the Forest (the first being in 1999), the Guild Ascension Day (where I got my cooks guild mastery), the soiree (refer Suth gild for recipes), one that I have no clue what it was for, but it's a really nice menu!

And then there are the soltelies... those ephemeral delights which are devoured at the feasts.. Just about every feast I've done has had a soteltie, whehter it's painted gingerbread, the amazing horn of plenty, the gingerbread dragon that terrified small children, the William Marshall effigy, Stormhold pie standards, the drakkar, painted plates, the sugar plate spice box, the gingerbread crown, the flower vase of raisin paste, those being from memory.

Hm, quite a few memories....
