What the year will bring

 I have a chunk of the year mapped out and a strict 

NO NEW PROJECTS ON THE LIST UNTIL AFTER 30 YEAR

Schedule as it is:

February: Scriptorium (cooking)

March: Arts in April (attending)

            Spring Crown Tournament (autocrat)

April: Flaming Arrow (small chance to attend but on my list anyway)

May: Doublewars (Still lots of logistics to work out)

June: Strawberry Raid (attending and camp cooking, really want to get there)

          30th Year Celebration and Coronation ( attending and some stuff to organize)


Now, where I am at with all of these things. 

Food for scriptorium is planned, nothing left there

Crown.... This one is complicated. We are still missing event staff, will try to scare up what we need but the monkey in the program, I need a feast cook!!!! I had one but due to circumstances beyond his control can not attend. So, plan B..... nope plan B did not pan out, On to plan C!!!! This is in process and fingers crossed!

Flaming arrow would be a birthday trip for me. I'd love to go. It has been forever since I did any archery

Doublewars: Time to look at logistics and money, ugh!!

Strawberry Raid: Halfway there.... but again, logistics and money

30 year: I need to ask some questions, pay some money, figure it all out


so ya, There we have it...


Oh, 2 more things... Online university (end of this month) and in person university (cooking in November)

Welcome to 2023

 I really should write more often. I just don't often think about it, maybe that will be my push in the new year, at least once a month should be doable, right?

Anyway 2022 is wrapped up. I always think 'I haven't really done much' but if I look at the list, I kinda have. So my list is as follows:

January: Taught 2 classes at online university
April: Cooked for Arts in April, Attended an event with no responsibilities 
May: Cooked at Double Wars (breakfast/brunch shift), was a consort for crown, helped with an elevation, embroidered 3 leaves for her laurel wreath, constructed a simple construction tunic (all but the hem), started a new gown, hand sewed a small red cap
June: Cooked at Coronation, trimmed the little red cap
July: attended an event with no responsibilities
October: Attended Crown as a consort, finished the gown I started, embroidered a pair of garters and a patch for an elevation cloak

I have also been hosting on line sewing circles, not quite every week but most weeks. I have been doing research in the field of cooking as well for upcoming events. I started the planning for Spring Crown (i'm autocratting), helping with 2023 on line uni, and planning the cooking for several more events that will take place in the coming year.

Speaking of the coming year, my plans are:

January: On line uni
Feb: Cooking at Scriptorium and Carnivale
March: Spring Crown, as autocrat and consort
April: AiA as an attendee
June: 30th year
July: Red and Gold
November: Cooking for in person Kingdom University

I am sure more will fill in the schedule but these are the firm things in the calendar.


Happy New Year all, May it be bright, blessed, and full of Joy!
