Valdyr House Ragnarok Meal Plan

Hey Lords and Ladies of House Valdyr,

I realize this is a little late but I thought it warranted posting to possibly avoid any confusion when it comes to chow.

This year House Valdyr's policy on breakfast and lunch foods is that all members are asked to please provide your own food for breakfast and lunches.

There are a number of reasons why we have chosen to take this route.  We all are operating with unique food requirements, tastes and budgets.  By asking each of you to provide your own fare it eliminates any potential issues with allergies and general dislike.  You know what you can eat, what you enjoy eating and what you can afford to eat.  There is nothing that bothers me more then someone spending my money for me.  I don't want to do it to you.

We feel this is really the best option for all involved.  It is difficult enough to find foods the three in my household will eat, let alone others.  ..and unless you share my freakish love of oatmeal you are better off.  If you want to eat Poptarts all day every day you are welcome to do so (and I will pray your liver can someday forgive you).

That being said,  if you have any questions or ideas about meal sharing etc, we are not opposed to working some things out ahead of time.  Feel free to make suggestions etc.  You can always utilize the cafeteria at Rag, and there will be multiple trips to the grocery stores.  If you get really desperate, you are always welcome to some delicious oatmeal :)

Yum!

Countdown to Ragnarok: Part 2

Just a little over 8 days to go guys! Are you getting excited? I'm suffering from senioritis at work, anxious to be on my way back to the middle ages.

There is going to be a lot more going on this year than there was last year.

On Monday, in addition to the all-day battles, you can look forward to a class on Garbing, hosted by Twinkle; a photoscavenger hunt; learning to play the drums around a campfire;

belly dance classes; introduction to Poi performance art; basics of fire performance; and a Children's Storytelling event for the munchkins!

Monday also marks the beginning of banner wars, for those who prefer a strategic battle, and straight-forward night fighting in the lower fields for those who just didn't get enough battles during the day.

Check out the Deepwood Ranger's Guild page by clicking on the tab. 
The requirements for joining the guild and even making Ranger are included. 

Enjoy!

Countdown to Ragnarok Part I

Update on Food! We are going to have SET TIMES for dinner this year, as it has been difficult to get everyone back for dinner at the same time, because no one knows when dinner is.

 Dinner will be served sometime between 6-7pm each night. The exceptions are Ragnarok War Council Nights, during which dinnerwill be served at 8 pm, because War Council starts at 6 pm.

Tentative meal plan is thus:

Sunday - Corma - Beef Stew or Taco Salad
Monday - Baline - Sloppy Joes.
Tuesday - Valdyr - Mystery Food
Wednesday - Meal in Town
Thursday - Baline - Pizza?
Friday - Corma - Beef Stew or Taco Salad
Saturday - Valdyr - Steaks

Baline has Monday and Thursday because those are War Council Nights, as agreed upon at the last meeting. I'm willing to trade nights with someone, should another Chief Chef wish to cook on a War Council night. None of this is set in stone, just general guidelines. Anyone not happy with their nights, feel free to trade.

Welcome

Hail Akron!

This will do a couple things: 1. More than one person will be able to post updates, and 2. Kaelyn will not be spamming inboxes with unrequested emails. Thus, only people who want updates will recieve them.

I'm sure we'll have a few bugs to work out along the way, so please be patient and let us know if there is a problem.
