No thrown weapons practice

Konichiwa Debatable lands. Be due to the excess of rain in recent days, I’m cancelling practice for this week. The ground is just to saturated to be safe, and the grass is taller than I would like, so finding weapons would be difficult. My goal is to have everything cut before next week’s practice. Hopefully the weather cooperates.

TONIGHT – Cooking and Socializing at Odriana’s

Tonight, Friday, 26 April 2019 at 6:00 p.m., there will be cooking and socializing at Odriana’s. We will do this every fourth Friday of the month. As weather in Western PA is wont to do, it has shifted and now looks like rain through the afternoon and evening, so we will be cooking indoors.

This first meeting will be cooking something out of Scappi, talking about food safety in non-traditional kitchen environments, and reviewing basic knife skills. More social than traditional teaching, don’t feel like you need to have some level of cooking skills.

I’ve selected recipe 119 from the Opera – “To stew every sort of capon and domestic hen”. I will be providing the ingredients.

There is limited parking at the house, however, there is a parking lot adjacent to my property for people to park and walk over. If you need to drop someone off and go park, that is perfectly fine. To get location information and add it to your personal calendar click here. You can also contact me at jenn.strobel(at)gmail.com.

Looking forward to seeing y’all there!



Youth Practice 4/28

Two upcoming Guild Meeting Announcements!

First, from our Signet:
Scribal East will be THIS Thursday 4/25 starting at 7pm at Lady Ceindrech’s home in Monroeville. PM or Dark Pages for address. Hope to see folks there! 🙂 -THLady Rachel

Next, from the head of the Woodworking Guild:
The woodworking guild is having a workshop session on Sunday April 28th, 2019 from 10am to 2pm at the home shop of Ishiyama Shonagon (1105 Shady Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15232). The phone number is in the Dark Pages if you have trouble or questions, but the number only accepts voice calls.

The main purpose of the time is to build some banner stands that the Barony needs, and maybe to make some banner poles. We can get all the pieces we need out of 2×4’s and the wood is already here. If time permits, after we make enough pieces for the stands that the Barony needs, we’ll be able to work on banner stands for ourselves or other personal projects. If you want to make a banner stand for yourself, you will need to bring an 8-foot 2×4.

Please feel free to bring any tools you’d like to bring, but it is not
necessary to bring anything but your interest in making stuff from wood and whatever safety equipment you prefer. Eye protection is required. Closed-toe footwear only. Gloves recommended for most work. Dust masks and expanding foam ear plugs can be provided. You can pull into the driveway to unload, but parking will be on the street.

This is a work session. The next planning meeting is scheduled for
Thursday May 23rd (after War Practice) at the Panera in Oakland from 7pm to 9pm.
