From the Curator of Cookies,
Once again at Baronial Twelfth Night on January 27th, we will search for the finest bakers of cookies in the Kingdom.
Those who wish to compete should bring a large sampling for the populace and a separate plate of six-to-ten cookies to be set aside for the judges. All cookies will be open for the populace judging throughout the day. Submissions will be accepted starting at 10:00. Judging will begin at 11:00 and continue until 4:00.
This year, pending availability, our new Excellencies, Violeta de Valencia and Aurelia Argentia Prima, will pick their winners. If the King and Queen of Fools are selected early enough, they too will be judges. This event is listed as a Royal Progess, so Their Majesties will be asked to judge. Should any other “special guests” attend, they will be additionally asked to serve. Note, that there are still gentles in the Barony with food allergies, so be sure to inform us if your cookies contain possible problems. We need to especially watch for gluten and nut allergies.
There will be a populace’s choice as well, judged by dropping beans as votes for the cookie of choice.
Please include a recipe if you wish and any nutritional information to protect our Barony.
In service to the Debatable Lands,
Mestari Urho Waltterinen
