Fort Taylor Pyrates will be bringing table snacks for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. These will include: Summer Sausage, Salami, various cheeses, Apples, Oranges, Bananas, various dried fruits- raisins, dates, cranberries, various nuts- pecans, walnuts, almonds, fresh baguette bread and various crackers. We are also making various "Queen's cakes" in individual sizes for display and for consumption by reenactors during the day, and Pralines- Pecan, Almond and Hazelnut for a quick sugar pickup. These snacks will be for any reenactor that wants them, but not for public consumption. We will also have a refreshing orange spice tea with lots of antioxidants to aid in preventing heat related illness. It will be available at DB Couper's fly. I am bringing the gallon coffee pot and coffee, so if Mercury needs to use it, they may.... For Michael Bagley and Stynky...I have LOTS of coffee...hehehehe....I may even share....maybe.... 🤭  If anyone wants something else, please chime in, the groceries aren't bought just yet, and we can make adjustments.

Wow! Sounds like an awesome spread 😋  (Especially the coffee 😀 )  Thank you so much!!! ❤

If I brought the makings of French Canadian pea soup, would anyone be interested in it?

It looks like something scraped out of a baby's diaper, but it is really good. Also, it is most appropriate for the French context that the site has for the GAoP.

I can adjust quantities up or down prety easily, although my default batch sizes are small (enough for 4 people who have bread or other accompanyments), or large (enough to feed 12-15 hungry people who also have bread or other accompanyments)

I have found that "diaper" dishes are often some of the tastiest so I am game if its on the menu!

Yes.

We hope to have some sort of cooking/food prep going on constantly, so yes please - whatever amount you want to bring/share.

I’m in for meal plans.

 

I’m also driving, so can bring on any needed supplies- or go get some if needed.

 

Sorry I haven’t been reading planning posts.

In the last month we’ve had:

2 wrecks

Replaced a car (which involved time looking at cars)

Worked full time

Sent off 2 kids to college (junior & a freshman)

& I’m trying to get me handsewn flag done.

Project: Tartan Jack’s Tartan Jack

- Skull getting finished now, then need to add the crossed bones (basing design, loosly, on the Stede Bonnet woodcut).

-John "Tartan Jack" Wages, of South Carolina
