yup... I agree... 

Stew is nice and filling, but Hamentashen might make for a tasty snack.

I havn't been active in the sca event scene these days.... 
but i was thinking about going to purim.... When the costume question
came up a week or two ago, i did some reading, and it sounded like
alot of fun.... would have liked to see folks, try some different
foods, etc. (Course I might still see folks tomarrow. ;)

I was out with some non-sca (yet) friends last night, and one said
that they were planning to go to the medieval purim. (perhaps because of the PG
blunder/advertisement... didn't ask from where she heard about it.)
I don't think they pre-reged. (her hubby was taking care of
entertainment for the day and she didn't know.) I suggested she have
him check to make sure.

Like rufina, I dilly dallied too long and missed reservations. 

such is life. There'll be other events. Have fun folks!
