      Excellent! Great wares!

  2. Woohoo, got an awesome mantua, not totally correct for fabric, but the structure is good, and it's looking like altered second-hand finery, which it truly is. Now to make another that I don't mind getting messy.

  3. Finally uploaded a pic of the modern shoes converted for period use. Far from the real thing, but ok for someone just starting out on a budget.

  4. Mixing up Fish House punch, cooking corned beef and hard boiled eggs for cold rations, for the weekend.

  5. Looking for a metate y mano, kind of like this: http://www.shoptejas.com/cgi-bin/image/templates/metateymano.jpg

      Was at Pennsbury Manor today, saw a wig stand. This looks easy to duplicate. No blockhead is necessary for the wig. Yay!

  8. Wondering if there is anything besides the Castillo I _must_ visit in St. Augustine
