Feast of Fools. What a DAY!

Feast of Fools, who knew one group could cram so much activity into one day and NOT have any Marshall activities at all!

Keep up now please....
All I can say is WOW what a day! It was one wild ride! ( not everything was foolish )

I'm a Mom!

This weekend along with all the other wonderful things that went on in Bright Hills one more special thing happened.

I took my first apprentice.
She is sarahjeanh, Katerina das Vogelein. Her Majesty bronx_baroness allowed me to do the ceremony in court and even signed the indenture as a witness. I asked HRM to take possession of the Barony so that all would know I did this as Mistress of the Laurel and not as Territorial Baroness. We exchanged gifts for our bond and read the contract in court. After we signed it and HRM witnessed it. I tore it in half in front of the populace and Kateria and I each kept a half. I then swore fealty to her Majesty as a peer of the Society. Her Majesty then gave the barony back to me.

In the grand tradition of my own Laurel elfsea_escapee I told Katerina she did not have to wear the apprentice belt if it did not actually "go" with her outfit! :-)

At Pennsic this year my plan is to go to the House Bloodguard encampment with gifts to give Duke Andreas in recompense for the loss of such a fine household member. Date and time to be named later if anyone wants to tag along. :-)

Here are some of the photos:( I cut to save your friends page )
