I needed something to settle my brain back down. For me, one thing that centers me back down is making lists. I love lists. To me, there is just something innately satisfying about making them, organizing them, reorganizing them, and eventually marking things off them.<\/p>\n<p>So this is for me, some SCA projects I need to tackle. Putting myself on the spot. Of course, the DOING of them will be fodder for this blog. In no particular order:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I need to tackle more historical warm glass work. There aren&#8217;t TONS of extant examples, but I have enough to do more than I have. This means more torch\/bead things too!<\/li>\n<li>I need to finish the outdoor medieval cooking hearth in the side yard. I mean, really, guy, it&#8217;s stacking bricks, mostly. And then I can do more Period cooking with period methods. Of course, finishing this will require me to do the next item on the list&#8230;<\/li>\n<li>I need to revisit my period chemical\/fireless cooking experiments. What I did before was NOT under the sorts of conditions that a period cook would have used&#8230;and I will need slaked lime to finish the cooking hearth in any case!<\/li>\n<li>I need to really, systematically work on recipe redactions from the Transylvanian cookbook. I mean, since I went to the trouble of editing it all and printing the thing up&#8230;this also means I need to pick the brains of those folks who do Ottoman and German cooking for their influences on Transylvanian cooking.<\/li>\n<li>I need to work on writing my next cookbook. I can&#8217;t\/won&#8217;t say too much about it here and now, because I think I&#8217;d like to see if it can be published, but it will be a cookbook of period recipes made accessible to a certain variety of medievalist cook.<\/li>\n<li>Time to up my medieval cookware gear. This means finding the holes in the tools and pipkins and such that I have, and finding period-appropriate stuff for those holes. I need to find myself some copper (or bronze) pots&#8230;so I can practice tinning them! I would like very much to tin my very large riveted iron cauldron as a special bonus project at the West\/An Tir War.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll think of more, so I can add things&#8230;and hopefully enjoy the thrill of crossing them off!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/leathernotebook\/files\/2018\/05\/img_1788-3.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-234 size-full\" height=\"2100\" width=\"1568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/leathernotebook\/files\/2018\/05\/img_1788-3.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/leathernotebook\/files\/2018\/05\/img_1788-3-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/leathernotebook\/files\/2018\/05\/img_1788-3-768x1029.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fibergeek.com\/leathernotebook\/files\/2018\/05\/img_1788-3-765x1024.jpg 765w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1568px) 100vw, 1568px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, after a recent event in my life got my brain all in a whirl (I have been been made a Member of the Order of the Laurel, GAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!)
