Seneschal (Kay) ? I have reported to the Regional Seneschal that we may have an issue with the number of signers on our Bank Account. The Barony may need to authorize another officer to be a signer. My thanks to Baroness Hannah for filling in the gaps as we tried to get Insurance for Wassail ordered. I am seeking a Drop Dead Deputy, and a possible replacement for this coming spring. The Baron and Baroness advise that whoever takes over from me will most likely be responsible for conducting the Polling. They suggest if you are interested that you read up on the polling process. Baron and Baroness (Kasha and Ermenrich) ? We have a busy 2 weeks ahead. Then Wassail and the winter holidays on to 12 th night. Please do award recommendations. If you have business with us note that 12 th night Baronial Courts are limited to 1 award action per barony. Finish Gifts for Grand Day! We are still a Barony!

I received a question this afternoon that reminded me that not everyone knows how to get their prize to me and Ermenrich on Saturday! As we have done in the past, the Barony of Cynnabar will be carrying the tournament prizes into court during Opening Ceremonies at Grand Day of Tournaments. Here's a review of how it works: - Bring the prizes you plan to donate and *line up in the hallway at 9:50 am*. - Opening Ceremonies start at 10 am. - During the ceremony, Ermenrich and I will call for a procession of the prizes, and everyone in Cynnabar will enter, carrying what they have brought so the crowd can see. - After presenting the prizes in court, you will place them on the table next to us and return to your seats. - During the event, Ermenrich and I will go through the prizes and decide which ones to give as prizes for which tournament. If you do not want to process into court for any reason, just find someone else to carry your prize for you.

To the contrary, I have a great deal of affection for the people of Cynnabar, individually and collectively. I certainly don't want anyone think I'm dissing or quitting Cynnabar. Absolutely not.

The Edible Monument exhibit, formerly at the Getty Museum in California, is coming to DIA. A lot of the exhibition is post 1600 but it still gives insights into the court banquets of our period of interest. Ivan Day's Sugar sculptures are always worth a look. For a taste of what the Getty offers, see: http://www.getty.edu/research/exhibitions_events/exhibitions/edible/index.html Johnna EXHIBITION The Edible Monument: The Art of Food for Festivals Friday, December 16, 2016 ? Sunday, April 16, 2017 The Edible Monument includes about 140 prints, rare books and serving manuals from the Getty Research Institute collection and private collections. The artworks illustrate in lush detail the delectable monuments and sculptures made of food that were an integral part of street festivals as well as court and civic banquets in Europe in the 16th to 19th centuries. The exhibition has been organized by the Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles. Public celebrations and street parades featured large-scale edible creations made of breads, cheeses and meats. At court festivals, banquet settings and dessert buffets featured elaborate table monuments made of sugar, flowers and fruit. These edible sculptures didn?t last long, but images of towering garden sculptures and lavish table pieces designed for Italian and French courts have survived in illustrated books and prints, many of which are featured in the exhibition. The exhibition includes a monumental sugar sculpture based on an 18th-century print. ?Palace of Circe? by sculptor and culinary historian Ivan Day is set on an 8-foot table and features sugar paste sculpted into a classical temple with sugar statues and sugar-sand gardens. The figures were meant to impart the consequences of gluttony with a story about the ancient Greek hero Ulysses. When he landed on the island of Aeaea, his men were so greedy that the sorceress Circe turned them into pigs. By the mid-17th century cookbooks and guides to the new skills and professions of carving and pastry-making were published. Copied and plagiarized, they became models that spread throughout European court culture. Examples of such books are included in the exhibition, such as one by Bartolomeo Scappi, the ?private cook? to Pope Pius V; Joseph Gilliers, the dessert chef to King Augustus of Poland; and Juan de la Mata, court chef to the Spanish kings Philip V and Ferdinand VI. Also so of interest is the new show: EXHIBITION Bitter|Sweet: Coffee, Tea & Chocolate Sunday, November 20, 2016 ?

Bring your piortable projects and meet in the Opera Lounge. If Practice is not helpd we will move into the Anderson Rooms and use that space, to keep our claim on it. Chronicler (Gavriil) ? Fall 2016 edition of the Citadel was published last week. Exchequer (Ilsa) ? The Quarterly Report is in. We may have made up to $1400 on Grand Day of Tournaments. As of tonight we have $10,680.12 in the account, and all receipts seem to be paid. Herald (Eadraed Alforde) ? *(1.) Grand Day of Tournaments.* I would like to profusely thank Chaya-Simcha bat Yonah, Buckler Herald for generously offering her time to teach the well-received "List Herald Training" class right after Opening Ceremonies of GDoT and throughout the day acting as List Herald coordinator. With her infectious enthusiasm for the subject, we were able to gather a robust group of List Heralds, many heralding for their very first time (!) as she guided us through a 'work-study' of sorts for calling the 350+ [_need to verify this number_] fights during the day. My sincere thanks also to those who answered the call for List Herald volunteers and willingly donated their time to help make the day such a resounding success. [Also my "Thanks!" go out to the Marshals for their patience and understanding for any of our novice's shortcomings.] *(2.) This month's Heralds and Scribes Night.* A group of approx. seven people gathered at Baroness Hannah and Baron Tairdelbach's home on Monday, November 7th for a lively discussion, among others, of all things heraldry [for example: "combatant hedgehogs"] shared with a savory meal, wine, and cookies! :-) *(3.) Inventory of Baronial Heraldic Library. *I have begun an inventory of the heraldry books owned by the Barony, with the hopes that it may be used as the basis for additional purchases (and/or gifts) to build a strong resource for name and heraldic research within the Barony. *(4.) Baronial Award Name and Device Registration.* Ursula Georges continues to lead the work on these registrations and steady progress is being made on this front. -- I will defer to her, if she would like to comment or update the populous on any details. [Just in case she might, I have cc'd Ursula on this message.] And my "Thanks!" and gratitude go out to her for taking up this project. *(5.) Next Heralds and Scribes Night.* Our next Heralds and Scribes Night meeting is scheduled for Monday, December 5th from approx. 7 pm until 10 pm at Hannah and Tairdelbach's home. -- Reminder that this is a potluck gathering, so please bring a dish to share. -- We hope to see you there! Knight Marshal (Zygmunt) ? GDoT: His Excellency Sir Gregoire already posted his report on the turnout and results of the event, so I won't repeat them here. *I continue to get reports from our Marshals of the field. * Practice continues to be well attended and folks are having fun. * I am working with Gregor to make sure the Domesday is done and in on time. Thanks for allowing me to serve the Barony. Archery Marshal (OPEN ) ? Note that Dillon ap Dillon might have practice this Sunday 12/4. Fencing Marshal (William, Deputy Birke) ? No Report, though well attended practices are said to be ?very stabby.? Chatelaine (Daege) ? Doing all the Things! Still Chatelaine Webminister (Aaron) ? No report. Several gentles praised the Cynnabar Website as a useful reference especially the order of precedence. Discussion of needed updates to that list. Send information to Aaron if you have it, please. Min. Youth (OPEN) ? Seneschal (Kay) ? My Quarterly Report is in process, and may even be done? And it was in Sunday evening. Lots of Seneschal Business this last few weeks: Grand Day, working with Ilse and Elfric to get reports done, checking with my regional on various questions for officers and event stewards. I hope I have been helpful. Baron and Baroness (Kasha and Ermenrich) ? Much activity in the next few weeks. Be sure your recommendations to the Crown are in soon. Scrolls will soon be assigned for 12th Night. We have a project in mind: To photograph all the Baronial Regalia, and interview people connected with the regalia so that we have a record of it?s history and origins. Like, the reason we have 3 Baronial Coronets? We are still a Barony! Meeting Adjourned at about 8:30 pm. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
