The Map Room

The Chatelaine's Office 'tis a good place to visit for my favorite bits and pieces of advice imparted to newcomers over the years.

Those feeling a little peckish might want to find your way to the Kitchens. There ye shall find recipes to fabulous dishes upon which to dine and wondrous concoctions to quench your thirst. Should ye find not what you desire, take a look at the Culinary Shelves' cookbooks or poke around in the Pantry for links to search further.  NEW!!  Alys's Reciept Boke.  Herein wilt thou find reciepes no longer found in the Kitchen.

In the Library, browse through the sources and links that abound. Sources listed include those that were used as reference for this site and suggested bibliographies. A wide array of useful links awaits your pleasure to study for more information and to help further you along in your studies. Do feel free to click on the bookmark links to print them out before you leave my humble domicile as a souvenir of your time here spent.

The Great Hall is a wondrous place for gathering. The Hearth will be where one’s entertainment questions can be answered by a mouse click to links of pages on games, dance, songs, storytelling and music. A story or two of mine and maybe one of my late lord's poems might some day be found herein as well.  Wanting an old story no longer in the Great Hall?  Try Here!

Pondering a change of clothes? Step into the Wardrobe. Costuming from the basic beginning T-tunic to the complicated. Links to some splendid sites for information in this room. Accessories lists, advice, colors, and patterns as well.

Are you interested in knowing about the heavy fighting and other things of a war like nature? All things of Arts Martial have I gathered together and placed in The Armoury. You will find it all - heavy armored combat, war arts, rapier, thrown weapons, and archery as well as the links to check out like a page that has armor patterns on it and all sorts of other informative links.

The Nursery holds all things related to one precious asset that many do have, Our Children. Ideas on how to clothe them, feed them, and occupy them as well as links to the Office that holds them all dear are enclosed therein.

The Garden is very fragrant indeed. In the Garden suggested reading for period gardening and a link or two are to be harvested here.

In My Sanctuary is where you will find out more about me -- my likes, dislikes, my persona history, my other hobbies and interests, personal information, and whatever else I choose.

Preoccupations, Occupations and Past Times, Hobbies and Guilds and General Fun Stuff. Yes there are even those here in this place. Go to the Treasure Box and follow the links there for information on lure coursing, weaving, and many other topics too numerous to mention here. Did you know that there was in existence such a thing known as Renaissance Radio?(A MUST Check-It-Out!) And where better to find more trinkets, baubles, and shiny things but in a market place.

Should thou be desirous of correspondence or sharing some thoughts and links of your own with me thou may find the ways here.

May I make one small request of you, my wonderful guest, do thou favor me with signing in my guest book so I know you were here and what you thought. (Still at the bindery.)
