The Ferret


Shananigens

I was thinking of bringing some things to put out to sell ( a few sets of leather bracers and i have some terrific sets of  large wooden chests  a set of 2 for $20 )and proceeds will go to helping the Hogans . Would that be acceptable?  If not please let me know?  Also those of you that ordered a set during that event that Captain Kat was at( Mip  you and jesse ordered one i think) I will bring them.

The Ferret


Terry Griffith

That Ferret's a caution.

For all you old "Hee Haw" fans, when I read the list of food people are bringing, I can't help but hear a crowd yell "Hey. Grandpa, what's for dinner?"

Chili and toppings, Lasagna, Cheese and pumpernickel, Spinach Dip, Meatballs and Buns, Parsley Potatoes, Buffalo Chicken Dip, Wings, Cheesecake, Stuffed Shells, Veggie Pizza and  Pasta Salad.  Mmm, Mmm.

Jan is making onion dip with pretzles, shrimp spread with crackers and chochlate Guinness cake.  Mmm, Mmm.

Aaawwww...that was a sweet thought, Terry.  Yep, I can still see him grinning from ear to ear as he replied to that question  :)

Thank you... I will make sure we bring the money for them.  I can also ask the other people that were at the event that ordered a pair if they would like us to pick them up.

As far as bringing along a few things to sell, hopefully to make a bit to help out the Hogans-I think it's a great idea. We are thinking about coming up with a few items for raffle...or chinese auction style...maybe something ren-related or a good bottle of whiskey...etc...that we can donate, folks buy some chances, and proceeds help the Hogans out. I know everyone is in a budget crunch, but if you have a few dollars to spare, bring them along and maybe win something to take back home while helping out at the same time. That family has been there for almost every one of us at one time or another, this is a good chance to give a little back. If you have anything you might want to donate for chinese auction-please email me or Stacey and let us know. Be seeing you soon!

How much for large silicone chests?

::sniggers::  Not sure Ferret..... you'll have to ask Hezzie for the answer to that one

Kevin wants to know if he can wear a sword? We are definitely wearing our garb. It is "Renstock." We arn't sure what the policy is for that in a public building.

Although it is a public building, we will be the only folks there-so I don't see any reason weapons are an issue-but I will let Stacey and Michael give us the final word on that, being more familiar with Crooked Creek regulations.

I just checked into it and the "sheriff of nuttingham" says weapons are no problem.   ;D

Gina and Barry will attend Renstock.  We will bring stuffed olives.

OYAY OYAY!!!!!!  MOST URGENT INFORMATION!  This news of a Chinese Auction for a most important cause has raised my spirits!!!!  There are reasons beyond explanation but I will give a few [1] The Hogans are a fine Family who have helped me personally and been friends to many of us [2] I myself have been through the extreme loss they are experiencing ( thanks again to all of you who gave when I had my SECOND fire in 2006!!!)  Therefore
LET IT BE KNOWN:  A WEAPON FROM HIS MAJESTY SIR WULF, KING CHARMING'S PERSONAL COLLECTION WILL BE AUCTIONED TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER ON THE DAY OF THE WINTER RENSTOCK TO BENEFIT THIS FINE HOGAN FAMILY...
While I too am suffering in this time of loss, it is best to help our family heal and this is a way we can all help them.  The highest bidder will take home a treasured piece of steel.

With the loss of my darling husband and because of my declining health, I had not planned to attend this event...yet with these new developments it seems most appropriate for all of us to try harder to get there, so that we may embrace and meet again.  These times are difficult for many.  For the Hogans, right now it is especially hard.  Do your best to come out and join together, and I will try as well.  I have encouraged my dear friend Lady K to gather herself together and come along so that we might support one another. 

If you would like to place a bid on the weapon unseen, you should contact mumsies at bonniecousins@gmail.com without delay.  I think she will accept your information on that behalf if you can not be there!

My turn.  I too want to do something to help the Hogans so Laurie and I have decided to make and sell some of the embroidered Renn belch shirts.  They will be available in several sizes and different colors.  Many of you may have seen them at the Christmas party or on one of our lovely Rennies at the Harp and Fiddle or at the Faire.  The shirt will cost $15 and all of it will be donated to help the Hogans.  If you need a special size just drop me an email and I will see if I have it or can make one up before Saturday.

Pardon me, ma'am, but I think your Freudian slip is showing.  *giggle*
