Dessert Auction

YES, Sir Eddie's (this weekend at the Deming Logging Show) will include the infamous dessert auction, at Saturday's potluck.

Food

On the weekend upcoming is Sir Edward's Tournament, in the fair Shire of Shittimwoode.

This year, the Shire will be offering day food!

For breakfast, we'll have: Pancakes, sausage, real oatmeal, sweet rice gruel, fruit, muffins, excellent bagels, eggs, the new sweetener called Maple Syrup, and fresh jams. And, the juice of Arabie (coffee) and a powerful tisane from the Orient (tea), also spiced cider and that strange new Spanish drink, Cocoa!

For lunch, we will be serving a beef stew and a vegan stew (lentil/barley), fresh veggie and fruits, roast-your own sausages, breads, and other goodies.

Lastly, we'll also be playing with a wood oven all day (come by - you can play too!), so who knows what wonderful goodies will be generated?

All profits will go to the Shire of Shittimwoode.

Lastly, Saturday dinner will be Pot Luck. So, you do not need to bring cooking gear or food if you do not want.

Please call me (360-733-0386) if you need specifics about ingredients.

With much affection, I remain your servant - Meresigha
