[Jararvellir] Gulf Wars North

[The Dark Lady]

So, it appears that fewer and fewer people are going
to Gulf Wars this year. This is sad. Tragic, really...

Therefore. I am hosting "Gulf Wars North" - a weekend
of fun and activities on a Gulf Wars-ish theme! I
can't promise the weather will be nice and warm, but
then again the first year I went to Gulf Wars, Chicago
was 20 degrees warmer than Hattisburg for most of the
week!

What: Gulf Wars North
Where: Eithni's Home for Wayward Girls (4934 Goldfinch
Dr, Madison)
When: Saturday, March 8th and Sunday, March 9th
Why: To have fun and enjoy some of the best parts of
Gulf Wars, even if we can't be there!

Join us for a weekend of fun and activities!



Artisan's Row
Saturday Afternoon (Noon until dinnertime)
Eithni's Home for Wayward Girls will be open for
project and research time. Bring whatever you are
working on and enjoy a low-key afternoon of crafting.
Or, even better! Bring a spare set and try to hook
someone else on your favorite flavor of crafting
crack. Eithni will spend some of the afternoon
preparing dinner, but with otherwise be available for
consultation on projects or assistance locating
research materials.

Dinner at the Food Court
Saturday 6PMish
Eithni will be serving several dishes inspired by the
Gulf Wars fare, hopefully to include Gode Cookery
cookies, Green Rice Bowl lamb nuggets, sweet tea, BBQ,
and more. Bring a dish to pass if you can, come to
dinner even if you can't. If you know what you will be
bringing or would like to request something in
particular to appear on the menu, contact Eithni.

Carousing
Saturday 8ish-late
Come in party-going gear or as you are for a night of
munchies and tropical drinks. Showings of Pirates of
the Caribbean and similar movies are possible, fun and
silliness are certain.

A Good Day to D(i/y)e
Sunday noon-?
The fighter types can meet at the Stock Pavilion for
fightin' while those interested in stinky water are
welcome at the Home for Wayward girls for a day of
dyeing. Come help
[info]dread_ex
and I break in our three-kindergartner pot! I have
madder and onion skins, but please feel free to bring
other dyestuffs or let me know if there are other
colors you would like to try and I'll see what I can
do...



Since I am opening this up pretty widely, please send
me an email or leave a comment so I know how much to
cook for dinner and how much party goodness to have on
hand. Out of towners, please contact me if you are
interested in crashing at the Home for Wayward girls.
Other local folk, let me know if you are interested
in/able to host crashers.
