gratuitous award post

[ursula]

The Feast of Saint Bunstable was last night (run by ladymuirgheal The Unbelievably Diligent). I got roped into heralding baronial court, and therefore into calling myself into court for the Tsveti Madrone, the barony's collect-all-the-beads arts & sciences award. (My bead is for research, also known as "Wait! We don't have a bead for any of those things!")

Oh, that's wonderful!!! Congratulations, and I'm so sorry I missed it!

[ursula]

Thanks! Maybe we'll see you at a project night sometime?

I hope so - at the very least I've still got the banner that I need to get to Brian, and I'd love to see you guys again. My schedule just hasn't been working out for it lately.

[ursula]

We miss you, too!

[ursula]

You're just too popular ;)

[ornerie.livejournal.com]

yep, that's it. sure 'nuff. ;)

[reasie.livejournal.com]

ow ow ow. My brain doesn't work that well first thing in the morning!

But to Ursula, congratulations, certainly. Is it a pretty bead?

I got a pretty bead from a lady at our last event, for fightin' all happy and stuff. I don't know what to do with it. I'm thinking of putting it on a chain, but that'd be booooring. maybe I'll set it with a stone and make a pendant out of it. or maybe I'll tie a lucky knot through it...

[ursula]

It's a pretty medallion. ctseawa has a picture of his here: http://ctseawa.livejournal.com/33911.html . (His bead is for hospitality, such as letting us college kids use his kitchen to make food for feasts.)

You could sew your bead onto something, or get another and make earrings, or . . . If you had an earlier period, you could wear all the beads you have!

Congratulations! I'm still drooling over those gloves, by the way.

[ursula]

Thank you again! (The gloves are up for trade, since I've already made myself a pair in red wool. Make me an offer?)

[tejolote.livejournal.com]

I would be all over them, but I can't think of anything to offer in trade. I know trading is more satisfying, but would you consider selling them?

[ursula]

But I know you have a craft! What about food items?

[wengeue.livejournal.com]

Congratulations!

Of course, when you talk about collecting the beads, I have a Camp Fire Girls flashback of sorts...

[ornerie.livejournal.com]

and you wouldnt be far off...

[wengeue.livejournal.com]

Heh. In Camp Fire Girls, I had a gown for special occasions (Council Fires) that we sewed at home, and decorated with beads and trim. And I had to pick a "persona name" of sorts, from a Native American language. Yeah, it prepared me early for the SCA!

[ornerie.livejournal.com]

yep, I was "Sharp eyed Hummingbird" from my fascination with annie oakley that I had back then :)

[ursula]

Thanks!

I believe the medieval precedent is kill-all-the-Saracens, so Camp Fire Girls is probably preferable.

[sablebadger.livejournal.com]

Congrats!

I don't have one of those yet.

:)

[ursula]

Well, the colour black doesn't seem to be taken. Maybe we should invent a heraldry bead. Of course, then you'd have to show up to an event :P

(Seriously, I miss you and Sonnet-- I don't think I've seen you in six months, and to make things worse, I have a strong feeling that the Oscars conflict with Kingdom A&S. Let's hang out when you get back from foreign climes?)

Congratulations!

[ursula]

Why, thank you!
