Court of love- food

[alysten]

The court of love went off without a hitch, at least as far as the food was concerned. There was very little food left at the end of the night. And what was left we sent with unicornpearlz to supplement the basket that has previously gone to the dancers. Nearly all of the food was period, sanguine in nature, and foods found in late period France. The most notable not period food were the brownies, but HRM have decreed that chocolate is indeed period (at least for this reign), so I exploited the loop hole. Not that anyone minded. If I had more time, I probably would have liked to actually make some bread. The bite sized portions were perfect for this "cocktail" type party. The bacon wrapped tenderloin went the fastest,I think it was gone in less than 15 minutes.

I took over the "Tad" tent for the kitchen, as it had the biggest space. I commandeered 2 additional tables from Declan's family. The crew and I were able to prepare everything in about 2 hours and were ready for service by 5. We had a happy kitchen and hopefully it seemed organized and relaxed. We definitely were on schedule.

Many thanks to lissa510, math5, loosecanon, ianraven, Payton, Mael Eoin, collin_m, Diane and the others who's names I cannot remember.

The food was fabulous. I kept going back to the table and was a pig.

I think Mael Eoin from Canton of Black Ike (Shire of Fred), and Nathan were helping you from the Bhakail side. They tell me they cooked for a long time.
