William Brand Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 Coooool. That may just be my new favorite frivolous holiday after Talk-Like A Pirate Day. I'm making Key-Lime pie that day.
Red Bess Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Wow! The crew of The Fool's Gold has been promoting Scurvy Awareness (the pirate way, of course) for the last couple of years at the Port Washington Pirate Festival. I didn't see plain ol' Grog on their list...that's still the best way to prevent scurvy! Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
