A special guest is coming...

[renren]

The dairy product thing,not quite sure, but they are a myspace friend, so I'll ask!
I like both coffee and tea,and I'm pretty finicky about both... Tillies hasn't let me down!
I tried some tea at another booth..was..ok.  Never been to the queen's tea,so I don't know how that is!

[Sitara]

Tillies is just a few booths down from Foaming.  I stop there every morning on my way to opening the pub.  Mmmmm...lattes.

[Escarlata]

Aye m'lady!  Mocha, Latte, Chai.  Everything a Festie/Rennie needs!

Oh, Rafe honey, now you've gone and done it. *chuckling* Didn't anyone think to warn you that Esc be no lady?

[CelticOne]

Someone new to meet!*bounces in excitement* and I still haven't met all the MN people yet, now I have to make final weekend.

[Baron Doune]

Mead booth at 10 Esc...don't forget.

Me thinks that your going to have a good time playing with us!

And it will be good to meet you in person.

god you so need to talk to John.

Any interviews planned?

[Kiss-me-Kate]

Aye m'lady!  Mocha, Latte, Chai.  Everything a Festie/Rennie needs!

Oh, Rafe honey, now you've gone and done it. *chuckling* Didn't anyone think to warn you that Esc be no lady?

He is a new-ish to the forum.  I am sure he will catch on.

[Escarlata]

*grinning* Then I'll be just a bit careful with Rafe, don't want to scare him away too fast.

Phoenix, it'll be fun meeting you. Seeing you in pirate garb made me remember that I have to figure out what garb I'm bringing with me. Maybe pirate one day ... hmmmm, don't think I'll try to put the corset in a softsided suitcase .... hmmmm, gotta think on this.

Baron love, it's a good thing the meet and greet is that early in the morning. Being first thing to do, I might remember to get there. If there's any other time that anyone  needs/wants me to be somewhere specific, make sure to grab ... wait a minute, possible bad choice of words *pondering* nah, you can grab me, just do it gently and with genuine affection ... and bring me along. Otherwise, I'm very apt to be in the right places at the wrong times for what others expect.

There are always interviews planned, sometimes even accomplished. But I never tell ahead of time who I'm interviewing or when an article will be published. I've learned that too many things can (and will) happen.

[Lord Figaro]

Oh what and education he'll get too muhahahahhah!!! In all my Rennie life, I can honestly say, this is the only time I've ever been looking forward to the final week of fest.

[Will Gamwell]

Aye m'lady!  Mocha, Latte, Chai.  Everything a Festie/Rennie needs!

Oh, Rafe honey, now you've gone and done it. *chuckling* Didn't anyone think to warn you that Esc be no lady?

Tis a sideaffect of my upbringing!  A polite gentleman to a fault when first meeting people.  Even if it is offensive.  Won't happen again....*crosses fingers behind back*  I promise!!

*grinning* Then I'll be just a bit careful with Rafe, don't want to scare him away too fast.

I may still consider myself a noob with only 3 season of working for Faire under my belt, but as those who know me can tell you, I cannot be scared away.

[Escarlata]

*chuckling* Rafe, I'm going to look forward to meeting you. I'll remind you gently about not being a Lady the first time *grinning* then I'll have to show you what I mean. And, just in case you switch to Ma'am like a friend of mine, be warned that it always makes me feel like a school marm. Watch out, 'cause I sometimes carry a ruler.

By the way, for those with gentle souls or strict morals, if I have to show him, you might want to look the other way *giggling*

[Marietta Graziella]

*MG pops up with a lawn chair, popcorn and a smile*

Escarlata, where're you going? 

[Will Gamwell]

*chuckling* Rafe, I'm going to look forward to meeting you. I'll remind you gently about not being a Lady the first time *grinning* then I'll have to show you what I mean. And, just in case you switch to Ma'am like a friend of mine, be warned that it always makes me feel like a school marm. Watch out, 'cause I sometimes carry a ruler.

By the way, for those with gentle souls or strict morals, if I have to show him, you might want to look the other way *giggling*

Luckily I am not totally bereft of social skills.  Usually if one does not desire to be called a "Lady" then calling them "Ma'am" will bring nothing but pain and tears. 

[Escarlata]

*smiling softly* then I shall try to emulate you, good sir, and quit baiting the locals. After all, it is I who will be visiting, wouldn't want to wear out my welcome before I actually arrive.

Hey, I know we're planning on Fig's Saturday night (and, yes, Fig, I expect you to sing for me) but what else do you all suggest? I'll be there Thurs afternoon through Monday morning.

[Lord Figaro]

Well if you like shopping there's always Mall of America. It's something to see, that's for sure. Go to far out into the hinterlands south of here, and you'll see lot's and looooots of corn fields.

[Escarlata]

OHHHH, Corn!!!

My ex still teases me about being in Ohio and amazed as I watched the ... what the heck is the right name for the machine that harvests the corn? ... anyway, watching the machine spill the shucked ears of corn, like a golden stream of water ... hey, don't go there! ... into the waiting trailers.

Shopping's OK, going the Mall of America would simply be for the experience itself. I can't imagine getting that close to such a place and not being able to say I'd been there. Maybe even a t-shirt for Bit-o-Pixie that says "They went to the Mall of America and all I got was this stupid shirt."
