Interested in gnawing on greasy lamb shanks? Or do you prefer vetches, oats and spelt-cakes? Come join us for an afternoon good old--and we mean REALLY old--fashioned mediaeval cookery. We will prepare, cook, and eat mediaeval foods from both sides of the Mediterranean Sea. Preparations will involve the use of authentic period recipe-books. You are invited to join us for this afternoon of fun and feasting. You may come as late as 5 PM, but as early as 3 PM, if you want to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty. For those with more academic interests we will have sources availabe for your reading pleasure--or horror.
