12th Night Potluck

Unto all residents and visitors of the Debatable Lands, Greetings of the Season!

As I’m sure you know, on 13 January, 2018, we will be holding our annual 12th Night celebration. As usual, this event is free and open to all. And as usual, there will be a potluck!

Please bring something to share, period, modern, or anything in between. So that others can make decisions on what to bring, I ask that you sign up here: http://www.luckypotluck.com/potluck/BMDL12thNightPotluck
and let us all know what you’re bringing.

I look forward to seeing you all and tasting your delicious contributions.

If there are any questions at all, feel free to contact me.

In Service,
Lady Melodia Beaupel
Kitchen Coordinator

12th Night Auction of Missing and Forgotten Stuff

Finding stuff you no longer need? Got a Lost & Found box from an event or practice? These are things for the Twelfth Night Auction of Forgotten Treasures ™!

Bring your no-longer-needed garb and gear, kids’ stuff, camping do-dads, and other items of interest to SCAdians to me at BMDL Twelfth Night. I can still pick stuff up – fighter practice would work, or any Panera or Starbucks, or even a tea shop!

The Auction has been a phenomenal success thanks to the many generous contributors and donors and forgetful attendees. I just can’t hardly wait to see what turns up this year!

Thank you, thank you all — Elss

BMDL 12TH Night — Auction Accepting Stuff!

As you rummage around in closet, attic, and cellar looking for those boxes of holiday decorations, keep an eye out for stuff you no longer need. These are things for the Twelfth Night Auction of Forgotten Treasures ™!

I will gladly pick up contributions of no-longer-needed garb and gear, kids’ stuff, camping do-dads, and other items of interest to SCAdians. Send a Faceybook PM to Elss Augsburg (other contact info in the Dark Pages) and we will find a mutually agreeable time/place to meet–fighter practice would work, or any Panera or Starbucks, or even a tea shop! Of course, you can always simply bring the things to the event.

Autocrats, here is how you clear out your Lost and Found!

The Auction has been a phenomenal success thanks to the many generous contributors and donors and forgetful attendees. I just can’t hardly wait to see what turns up this year!

Thank you, thank you all — Elss

Agincourt Feast

Now speak I will a little more
Of craft, truly, that takes great lore
In court; that men call cookery,
That must be done in three degrees;
This meat roaster, pastry-cook, and potager,
And even the scholar that follows in company,
First to you I will show
The points of cookery, all by row,
Of Pottage, roasted meat, and bake-meat,
And small cookery, I won’t forget.
The names in table I shall set
The number in algorism above, without let,
In algorism that shall be written,
And the titles within on the same row.
-Liber Cure Cocorum, translation by Cindy Renfrow.

This is the feast for Agincourt 2017. All items are from the Liber Cure Cocorum, a poem on cookery believed to have been written during the time of Henry VI. There are vegetarian and gluten free options available, but I need to know how many people require this accommodation so I make enough. If anyone with tree nut allergies or dairy allergies will be attending, I will be able to accommodate you separately, if you contact me to let me know. As always, I will do my best to avoid cross-contamination, but given that the facilities themselves are not gluten free/nut free/dairy free/etc., I cannot guarantee that there will be no cross-contamination. To contact me, please email jenn.strobel@gmail.com or phone me at 412.213.8116 (no calls after 7p, please).

Change to Siege of Harlech Event

The head cook for the Siege of Harlech Event on April 16th has been changed, and there is no longer a feast. There is an all-day sideboard by the new cook, so you will not go hungry. For more details, see the new listing on the Baronial events page, or at the Kingdom event page.

Pre-registrations are still being accepted until April 9th! Please take note that there is no longer a feast, so do not include feast fees in your pre-registration.
