Early Week – Anja got the problems with the pictures sorted out Monday night and posted the update on the cheese.
Visit from a Friend of the House – On Wednesday Jay came down to Waldport with Josh. Josh is the Friend who lives in Missouri, who was here for the February Winter Feast. We haven’t seen Jay
for awhile, either. We spent the evening talking foodie stuff, everything from this year’s feast, last year’s good foods, trying some lovely blue cheese and how to equip a kitchen. They also brought us a bottle of some wonderful saffron!
They’ve been doing a lot of research and are planning on doing a trial run on the black pepper sauce from Tallivent and maybe the lamprey sauce, if they can source some lampreys. Their fun one has been discovering Gode Cookery! I got them started on the Gutenberg Project links, as well.
Josh found some recipes for mushroom and cheese pie, an almond milk and barley gruel and we talked about making small house flags to add to the dishes. …and they love the idea of the poulaille farcie dragon!
Sewing – We spent a little time finding the pieces of loaner garb that need to be mended. They’re now all in one place, at least. No progress, otherwise.
Herb Bunch – ….started the week with getting the last of the tender plants moved. More plants got shifted as the week went on and Wednesday evening was so cold that some actually got covered to keep them from freezing! There wasn’t anyone in on Saturday for the Herbs workshop, so Anja packed herbs for her shop. Next week, we’ll be making more wood butter.
Project Day – Just didn’t really happen. It was just Anja and Loren this week and with doing inventory….
