So my party and I have decided to haul out the gumbo pot and a couple of chickens and hogs for Saturday night.
Anyone interested in some authentic cajun cooking (while it lasts) should come by and introduce themselves.  We'll be a party of 5 (probably) camped out in the dark at D-0, right at the dead end, look for a big red dodge.  The plan is to leave the faire at around 6:30 on Saturday evening to get it started, should be in full boil by the time the faire closes.
oops.

Do you deliver as I will starting my 12 hour shift around that time at work.   ;D

oops.

Xed, it was awesome meeting you over at PR! I hope you had a wonderful weekend, and I'm sad I didn't managed to get any of the jambalaya!

Are you talking about the folks right behind us in the pop up camper?  We didn't get any contact info but I did tell them about r/f.

Yup, that was them.  Maybe they'll show up!

I think they mentioned making an effort to attend Sherwood.  If we see them I will remind them about the forum.

This thread warms my soul in ways that I can't begin to describe.  We will definitely be back this year, and will definately be cooking on thanksgiving, at LEAST.
Maybe I can scare something up for the October trip, too.  We'll see.

;D


[EDIT]: I don't visit here a lot during the off-season, if you'd like my facebook info, inbox me and I'll share that.  It gets kind of hairy at times, though, so be warned.

[EDIT #2]: Forgot to mention that I've got a whole bunch of mead from this summer's test batches for tasting!  I've got Pineapple/Kiwi, Pomegranate/Rosehip, Traditional, Traditional aged with light toast oak, Traditional aged in heavy toast oak, and a Citrus mix; all around 10-11% abv.
oops.

LadyJessica

Xed, if you would be so kind as to hold some of the rosehip mead until closing weekend I'd be ever so grateful!! I would LOVE to try that!

I'll do my best :)

It's mostly pomegranate, though.  The rosehips weren't strong enough to really make an appearance over the tartness of the poms.
oops.

Bonny Pearl

Can't wait to see y'all!  Sending you a PM for FB info.  Think I am going to have to sample the mead too!  ;D
