[Artemisia] Revenge is Peep (teaser)

[BECKY LEISHMAN]

Ya know, there is at least two songs, that I believe are period or at least have a period flavor that would go well with a chocolate milk/root beer non-alcholic roasting over a campfire... type party....

Shaking of the sheets
Banks of the Vergio

Both of which are fun to sing.  I'm sure there are many others.  Use it as a time to teach??????

  His Grace, Duke Alan may be having the last laugh yet, seeing that I  
  have a well-baked case of callig-shoulder, my arm and fingers are  
  covered in burn gel and band-aides from the spills of molten peep-goo  
  that have taken control of my kitchen - and worse yet - my sealing  
  wax pot.

  And I was going to try a new recipe for medieval sealing wax today...

  ***SIGH***

  I may have to get a new wax pot.

  It was really really really hard not to bust up laughing at the  
  feast.  El Hermoso Dormiendo (who, true to his name, was still in bed  
  at 10:30 when I left for the event site - and who didn't arrive until  
  after 1 pm - wish I could have slept in too...) found these  
  telescoping forks somewhere in downtown San Luis Obispo (where his  
  folks live).  He brought them to the feast.  So there we were,  
  toasting marshmallow peeps impalled on the ends of our fully-extended  
  telescoping forks over Viscountess Lynn's candles when Alan's 4-year- 
  old grabs a peep, sticks it on his fork and tries to do the same.   
  And of course, the evyl Demon-Queen of Artemisia commanded one of our  
  forks to be brought to her so she could toast her own marshmallow  
  peep over a candle.

  It was really really really really hard not to lose it at that point,  
  in the middle of a peep-filled two days, but I knew more Alan torture  
  was just around the corner and so I was able to restrain myself for a  
  little while longer...

  You know, El Hermoso Dormiendo and I were in the middle of our Sunday  
  afternoon joy ride today when it occurred to both of us that we could  
  propose a new family activity for the evenings at Uprising.   
  Chocolate Milk and Root Beer tastings for all (drunk people not  
  allowed), fun family-oriented sing-alongs with all those great kid  
  songs we all remember from way back when ("great green gobs of greasy  
  grimy........") and toasting peeps over the campfire for kids of all  
  ages.  Yah, sure, it's not exactly period but it would be fun -  
  especially the peep toasting!
