Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Trebuchet!! Hey, that's from Timeline! Not the all time greatest flick in the world, but it was decent.

Mission Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Not much makes me actually laugh out loud, but that's pretty funny. "It's raining food! AIEEEE! Call the National Guard! Keep your children indoors!" TREBUCHET! (It was a bad movie and I don't recommend anyone run out and see it or anything. Read the book instead, which is far better. Still, that stuck with me because I thought it was sort of funny...) Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective.

Silkie McDonough Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 Tobacco If you have any that you wish to share I have a pipe box and am working on pipes. However the tobacco drawer is empty (never mind the fact that I will be storing the pipe bowls there). I know nothing about tobacco. I know I like the sweet smelling stuff but I don't smoke it. If someone wants to bring some for us let us know so that we don't end up with far more than we will use. Anyone who plans on using my pipes & the provided tobacco bring coin, the tobacco needs to be paid for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a new pouch of Captain Black's Gold for the trip.... And may buy a second pouch of another type of pipe weed for variety... As I am not a regular smoker, I doubt I would ever finish either pouch before they went stale, so I am more than open to sharing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hurricane Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I must say it was a real joy seeing you again. You are such a class act. I know that Diosa and I want to move our operations out beachside so we can contribute to the cooking in the 'extraordinary' ordinary of yours -- Diosa's Onion Soup is fab and I think she can feed an army with it.

RustyNell Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Silkie, How do you feel about doing one evening menu with food and recipe's that would have been native to the islands at the time. I'll do my research and and put together some recipes, anyone else please chime in we could make it a period pot-luck. We'll not only get a great taste for the islands but for the time period. It could turn out to be a really exotic meal. i was reading some of the recipes in No Quarter Given and some of them sounded pretty appetizing, if not at the very least interesting. (e.i. paw-paw - being from the south i'd heard of it but had never actually tried it andm never realized what it was - boiled green papaya - sounds interesting.) brought to you from the test kitchens of the careening camp....

Diosa De Cancion Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 The onion soup I make is a French recipe from the early 1600's, so it's in period. I plan on doing that as one meal next year... I will use veggie stock so any vegetarians can still enjoy the soup (this year it was made with chicken stock).... I am also going through some of my other recipes to work on some other meal options... I actually have a cookbook filled with recipes from the 1500s and 1600s...... I'll get back to you on some of the others. As for the islands. I happen to have a yard filled with banana and coconut trees as well as sugar cane. You may have seen the bunches of bananas sitting around this year... I can bring fresh coconut branches that are ready to be cracked as well as bananas, cane and oranges to be used.... Cooking with coconut milk is yummy...I could even possibly mix up a few tamale type items with crushed corn and steam them in the banana leaves.... now you have me thinking......

William Brand Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I am volunteering to cook a meal next year. I plan to perfect and then prepare a dish from the period book "The Accomplisht Cook" by Robert May. I will be careful to prepare variations of meat and non-meat recipes from the book.

RustyNell Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 My neighbor who watched the cats while I was away said it looked like i lost a few pounds..she's kind, I gained 3.... if we keep up this talk looks like i'll gain 5 next year... I'm sure it will be worth every bite! Sounds like we're on our way to evening FEASTS! if we can get the buccaneers roasting meat, and do some PC side dishes, and take turns serving each other we'll eat like kings all weekend, sign me up for a couple of evening meals, i'll make at least 2 dishes Silkie... maybe we should consider building some sort of PC brick oven for baking...anyone? regarding the vegetarians ... we have a few in our crew as well, I did my best to accommodate them by making a small meatless batch- its not too tough to put an extra pot on. I'm going to talk to the crew about getting that breakfast vendor back .... we're all far to tired (from 4 am nights ) and everyone seems pressed for time in the morning, far too many people, myself included... wandering about in a stooper begging for coffee.... I miss the pancake guy from 2 years ago. He was really reasonably priced too. We're camping out at the beach as well this year, I have a feeling we'll need the room for vendors. I'm thinking we should reserve our crew cooking for out in the careening camp at the Hide. I heard the food vendor wasn't too pleased with the competition, they could see we were cooking, even though it was for charity or for ourselves, I'm sure he was concerned about the loss of business, its hard to compete with practically free food. We need to keep our vendors happy too. I'm really excited about how this is bringing everyone together, thanks Silkie, and Diosa, it was so wonderful the one night I ate there, did someone say Lily made the minestrone, or was that your recipe... either way the meal was elegant and it felt like family, we may need more tables next year. “PIRACY, n.
