This year Altavia is Rockin' the Casbah!
The Baron and Baroness of Altavia would like to invite the populace to celebrate Yule, Persian style on December 8, 2012. Come and mingle with belly dancers, drummers, magicians, genies and thieves.
There will be several contests throughout the evening including our new annual culinary contest, “The Fretted Fork” for those who want to Scheherazade their cooking skills with us! Documentation and incorporating the theme will earn bonus points. Also, a people's choice dessert contest, a table decorating contest (open flames are okay, but must be enclosed and the container must be an inch above the flame) and a costume contest. (please set aside a small portion of your food entries for judging and bring a list of ingredients.)
Their Excellencies will also determine the new Bard of Altavia. Singers, dancers, musicians, drummers, poets and magicians Al-addin' to make the evening an event to remember! The theme of the competition will go along with the evening: 1,001 Altavian Nights. We will be sponsoring our annual Baronial Chess Championship Tournament games as well. Please bring your cards or dice or other games to share. Drinks are allowed in the gaming room, but please no food.
We have two wonderful main dishes planned for the evening, a lamb dish and a chicken with olives dish and couscous. Please bring a side dish (surname beginning with A-M) or a dessert (surname beginning with N-Z) to share with 8-12 people and add to the buffet table. Please let us know if you'd like your offering to be considered for one of the competitions. Humor us and prepare something with a Persian or Middle Eastern theme!
Feast space is limited so please contact the event steward for feast reservations. For reservations, please email the event steward a name to hold the reservation under and how many in your party.
