Unto the Populous and nobility of the Barony of Nottinghill-coill

After a long hiatus due to illness, I plan on restarting my interest group, The Wooden Spoon. To facilitate this, I have updated the Yahoogroup and made a page on Facebook. 

As it mentions in the description, this is ‘A place to discuss, share recipes, cooking techniques, and ask questions about medieval culinary practices; mostly focusing on the cuisines researched in the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA, Inc.).’ We already have 50 members on Facebook as so far, and I’m hoping to start physical “meet-ups” after the first of the year here at my home in Elgin.

Feel free to check out the Wooden Spoon Page for more information on various culinary projects and eventual meeting schedules. You can also contact me, Sandi Rust (Marie Hélène) via email (feo2mouse [AT}yahoo.com) or by phone (803) 729-4186.

Deputy Chronicler Wanted

Seeking someone fairly active to be the Baronial Chronicler's "boots on the ground." Contact Dulcy at  quill(AT)nottinghillcoill.org or paintedwheel {AT} Hotmail.com if interested.  Put "Chronicler" in subject line.

A Wake at the Wheel seeking Musicians

The Cyddlain Downs-based folk band A Wake at the Wheel would  like to expand our group. You need not be a member of Painted Wheel to play with us. We practice usually once a week, and play a blend of Traditional Irish, Contemporary Irish, Folk, and original songs (and sometimes in private, rock or metal or country just because it’s fun.). No minimum skill level required, and no requirement of period instruments. Singing ability a plus, but not required. 


Of late, we are in the process of adding traditional tunes to our playlist with the plan of playing with a larger seisiún at the British Bulldog in Columbia once a month, so anyone wanting to get in on that may contact us and we’ll hook you up.

Interested? Drop us a line at macterah [AT] earthlink.net to set up a time to come out and see if what we do suits you.
