In-Reply-To: <1985631915.2771554.1423601939241.JavaMail.yahoo@mail.yahoo.com> References: <1393002977.97550.YahooMailNeo@web125504.mail.ne1.yahoo.com> <1985631915.2771554.1423601939241.JavaMail.yahoo@mail.yahoo.com> Message-ID: <390488233.831369.1454935603885.JavaMail.yahoo@mail.yahoo.com> Hello fellow Cynnabarbarians, Once again this year I am organizing the dessert revel for our dance event, Terpsichore at the Tower. The event will be on Saturday, March 5th this year, and the dessert revel will take place between sets of the evening ball. Traditionally, Cynnabar folks (and occasionally a few others) bring desserts for the revel, which are then enjoyed by everyone attending. Please let me know ASAP whether you can bring something for the revel, even if you're not yet sure what you'll bring. I would like to encourage everyone in the Barony who possibly can do so to contribute something. I will once again be doing a subtletie style cake myself. The revel at our event has become known for it's variety and abundance of food (I've been told by other dancers that Terp has the BEST dessert revel), and I'd like to keep that up. We had one year where I nagged less than usual, and we ended up being a bit on the skimpy side food-wise, so I'd like to keep that from happening again. You can email me or message me on Facebook to sign up. If you don't know what to bring, please go ahead and sign up now and decide exactly what to make or buy later. The purpose of the list is to make sure that there will be enough food, and that not everyone brings the same thing (some duplication is fine, but if everyone in the barony showed up with a bag of grapes that would be a bit silly). We should have a table somewhere where subtleties can be on display during the day, and space in the kitchen to stash desserts that won't do well sitting in a car all day. Thanks!? More info is below for those that need/want it. -Magda -------------------------------------------------------------- Some general guidelines (not rules) as to what to bring: Try to stick to finger food, or things that can be eaten with just a fork. Lots of something small is probably better than a few of something large. This will let more people sample each thing (buffets tend to make folks want to try a little of everything). Presentation counts. Brownies arranged on a plate look nicer than brownies still in the pan. They can also be grabbed more quickly, so the line will move faster. Nothing slows down a line like having everyone stop to cut themselves pieces of things, so precut anything where that won't destroy the presentation. If you buy something, serving it from something more period looking than the cardboard box it came in will make a better impression. If you want to try making something that actually is period, you can talk to me, or any of the cooks in the barony for ideas. There is also a lot of great information at Stephan's Florilegium in the food sections (http://www.florilegium.org). Some examples of period choices would include marzipan (which can be shaped or molded, rolled into balls, or just cut into squares), custards, fresh or dried fruit, pastries, candied fruit peels or flowers, gingerbread, shortbread, sugar paste (gum paste), some cookies (not involving chocolate, or baking powder or soda), biscotti, sweet breads (with or without fruit), nuts or fruit tarts. Subtleties (decorated foods, or foods which look like something other than what they are) were a medieval favorite, and would be great if anyone has any recipes or ideas along those lines which they want to try out. These can range from the ridiculous to the sublime, and generally do so in the SCA. Examples we've had have included cakes in the shapes of things (flower basket, tower, rock, lute), cookies with the cinnabar arms on them or shaped like elephants, a tower made of hostess cupcakes, and brownie battlefields of fighting marshmallow bunnies. These are often impressive and/or entertaining. If you don't have the time, inclination, or facilities to do something period and/or elaborate, you can bring anything that you think folks will want to eat between sets of a ball. All types of cookies and candies are welcome, as are salty snacks, veggies and dip, appetizers etc. Non-medieval food is fine, especially if it's homemade. Chocolate may not be period, but it always seems to disappear rapidly. All of the above are guidelines, not rules. Anything you bring will likely be happily consumed by hungry dancers in need of energy. Oh, and if you bring something which has non-obvious nuts in it, you might want to mark it as such, so that folks with allergies will know what to avoid. (Putting a "Warning--contains nuts" sign next to a bowl of mixed nuts is not really necessary, although it may be amusing). Thank you for helping our group provide hospitality to our guests, and I look forward to seeing you at Terp. -Lady Magdalena Vogelsang P.S. My apologies to those who get more than one copy of this email. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

To enhance the *planned Pentamere archery presence out on the Pennsic War archery field* *each Barony provide their Barony's device in the form of a small flag* to be hung on the flag pole or tents under a larger flag of the Pentamere Device. 12X12 inches and two sided. Silk is possible. ? She says, ?This would serve as a rallying point each day for the Archers of Pentamere, thus showing unity, leadership, companionship and friendship, plus possibly put fear into the hearts of the other Kingdoms archers.? ? I am very interested in pursuing this idea. It might be a good workshop to make a batch of similar or larger banners for the Barony to use. Or people could paint baronial banners for their own pavillions. I want that, myself. What do people think? Kay has suggested to Aelfric, Kingdom Exchequer, that Cynnabar?s fall event might be a good test for the coming *PayPal reservation and onsite credit card procedure*. ? We would need a ?Reservationist? to receive the emails of information sent by the Kingdom Deputy Exch. For PayPal, and add people to our roster of paid reservations. ? About 3 weeks before the event online reservations are closed, and the Deputy sends us the list of reservations and a check for the gate and feast fees, minus a set fee per transaction. Aelfric estimates that at around $.50 per PayPal transaction. ? Stewards would need to plan and budget for this expense if they want online reservation services -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

(The Big Sing is a multi-region effort to perform a piece for lots of performers. The performance will happen during the evening Cecilia concert.) This is open to everyone. If you like singing in choirs please join us! You do not need to be able to read music. I will provide lots of resources to help you learn the pieces. My intention is to start rehearsals after Terpsichore. Everyone who wants to participate will need to come to at least the last two rehearsals. There will also be at least 3 rehearsals before that where I will go over individual parts. (The music can be found here including audio files to practice with: http://cynnabar.thedancingmaster.net/singing/ ) I'm trusting that you all know your own ability level and can choose how much part rehearsal you need. Rehearsal options are every other week 7:30-9 on Tuesday or Wednesday starting the week after Terpsichore. (I could also do some Mondays, although I know it's at the same time as the business meeting.) If you are interested let me know, and let me know which evenings would work for you.

Hello fellow Cynnabarbarians, Once again this year I am organizing the dessert revel for our dance event, Terpsichore at the Tower. The event will be on Saturday, March 5th this year, and the dessert revel will take place between sets of the evening ball. Traditionally, Cynnabar folks (and occasionally a few others) bring desserts for the revel, which are then enjoyed by everyone attending. Please let me know ASAP whether you can bring something for the revel, even if you're not yet sure what you'll bring. I would like to encourage everyone in the Barony who possibly can do so to contribute something. I will once again be doing a subtletie style cake myself. The revel at our event has become known for it's variety and abundance of food (I've been told by other dancers that Terp has the BEST dessert revel), and I'd like to keep that up. We had one year where I nagged less than usual, and we ended up being a bit on the skimpy side food-wise, so I'd like to keep that from happening again. You can email me or message me on Facebook to sign up. If you don't know what to bring, please go ahead and sign up now and decide exactly what to make or buy later. The purpose of the list is to make sure that there will be enough food, and that not everyone brings the same thing (some duplication is fine, but if everyone in the barony showed up with a bag of grapes that would be a bit silly). We should have a table somewhere where subtleties can be on display during the day, and space in the kitchen to stash desserts that won't do well sitting in a car all day. Thanks!? More info is below for those that need/want it. -Magda -------------------------------------------------------------- Some general guidelines (not rules) as to what to bring: Try to stick to finger food, or things that can be eaten with just a fork. Lots of something small is probably better than a few of something large. This will let more people sample each thing (buffets tend to make folks want to try a little of everything). Presentation counts. Brownies arranged on a plate look nicer than brownies still in the pan. They can also be grabbed more quickly, so the line will move faster. Nothing slows down a line like having everyone stop to cut themselves pieces of things, so precut anything where that won't destroy the presentation. If you buy something, serving it from something more period looking than the cardboard box it came in will make a better impression. If you want to try making something that actually is period, you can talk to me, or any of the cooks in the barony for ideas. There is also a lot of great information at Stephan's Florilegium in the food sections (http://www.florilegium.org). Some examples of period choices would include marzipan (which can be shaped or molded, rolled into balls, or just cut into squares), custards, fresh or dried fruit, pastries, candied fruit peels or flowers, gingerbread, shortbread, sugar paste (gum paste), some cookies (not involving chocolate, or baking powder or soda), biscotti, sweet breads (with or without fruit), nuts or fruit tarts. Subtleties (decorated foods, or foods which look like something other than what they are) were a medieval favorite, and would be great if anyone has any recipes or ideas along those lines which they want to try out. These can range from the ridiculous to the sublime, and generally do so in the SCA. Examples we've had have included cakes in the shapes of things (flower basket, tower, rock, lute), cookies with the cinnabar arms on them or shaped like elephants, a tower made of hostess cupcakes, and brownie battlefields of fighting marshmallow bunnies. These are often impressive and/or entertaining. If you don't have the time, inclination, or facilities to do something period and/or elaborate, you can bring anything that you think folks will want to eat between sets of a ball. All types of cookies and candies are welcome, as are salty snacks, veggies and dip, appetizers etc. Non-medieval food is fine, especially if it's homemade. Chocolate may not be period, but it always seems to disappear rapidly. All of the above are guidelines, not rules. Anything you bring will likely be happily consumed by hungry dancers in need of energy. Oh, and if you bring something which has non-obvious nuts in it, you might want to mark it as such, so that folks with allergies will know what to avoid. (Putting a "Warning--contains nuts" sign next to a bowl of mixed nuts is not really necessary, although it may be amusing). Thank you for helping our group provide hospitality to our guests, and I look forward to seeing you at Terp. -Lady Magdalena Vogelsang P.S.

Kingdom will notify the Reservationist to instruct the MEMBERS authorized to do the transactions that they can download the app to their phone/tablet/laptop. c. A Kingdom Representative will come and train the MEMBERS doing *PayPal Here*. This would most likely be AT THE EVENT, or some other Event where the training can be held. d. After the event, Kingdom will generate a report of the transactions and send a copy with a check to the reservationist e. Close down Group access to PayPal Here Ilse pointed out that this may not be in place until late summer, and maybe not in time for Grand Day. I will ask about it when we get closer to that event. *Words from the Baron and Baroness* (Kasha and Ermenrich) ? We will be away in Seattle for most of next week to see our newest nephew and support our family. If we are not quick to reply to messages please understand.
