Alhambra Nights

Last year I ran an SCA event based on Moorish and Middle Eastern theme - well, the food and decorations were. It was fun and people seemed to like it, so I'm running it again on 6th September. Hopefully the weather will be a little warmer than it was in August last year, but I'm not sure the way this winter has been going.

There's an entry about the last one here and it includes a picture of the decorated hall'

I've been having a fun time redacting various recipes. Yet another hobby! The people that I've used a guinea pigs for the recipes don't seem to have minded, however.

I think that most of my flist that are likely to be able to make it already know about it, but if you didn't and you want to come - let me know and I'll send details.

I found out about it yesterday. I want to coooooooooooooome.

I need to organise myself and see if I can find somewhere to stay, I was jealous that I missed it last year - we want to attend :)

It would be lovely of you could come. I think our spare room is taken up that night - must check that these people are still coming. Even so, we can offer a tent and a big back garden- though it's still a bit cool here at night.

I think Andrew may have to work, so I'm not sure what's going on now. Still, if there *is* a spare room, I'd love to know, if it's not an imposition. :)

I'll try and find out whether said friend still needs it. We also have a comfy sofa, but it's a bit narrow.

Mmmmm....those lavender meat rissole thingies...gosh they were good!

But were they as good as the meatballs from last year? :)

Wow... I can't believe it has been a year already! Bummed we can't be there. Goodluck!

And yeah... I owe you an email. Stuff has kind of come up and I am a)More forgetful than usual and b)Just really tired (not to mention a trip to the Terracotta Warriors coming up and an assignment due...)

Will write soon! Promise!

Heh. I'm busy as well, so I completely understand. Envious of you getting to see the Terracotta Warriors - didn't make it there when we visited.
