1. Where are you camping?
W14 - La Familia Gladiatoria. Ours is the Greek temple on the lake at the bottom of Runestone Hill. You can't miss it. (I never get tired of saying that.)

2. When are you arriving?
Sunday the 8th around 5:30 at Pittsburgh Airport. Hopefully someone will pick me up . . .

3. What cool stuff are you doing?
My camp holds a Turkish and Greek Dessert Night on the Monday of War Week. I hear there'll be Turkish coffee, apricots with cream, dates filled with goat cheese and mascarpone, Turkish shortbread (gluten-free and otherwise) and stuffed grape leaves, just to name a few things. And we'll have performers of some kind. It's a very civilized party.

I also teach a Turkish Bath Class, open to Women-only. It's a medieval spa day. I am proud to say I make redheads every year.

If someone will let me, I'd love to go to Baroness Run Amok on Thursday night because there'll be some great women running amok. Even if I'm not a baroness.

4. What's your SCA name?
Nisaa Karahisari (well, actually it's a lot longer than that. Just call me Nisaa and I'll respond.)

All I ask is that if you run across my awful, awful ex, you hit him with whatever comes to hand. I think he spent Pennsic last year deciding to break up with me... weeks later after my birthday. How I hate him.

Yes, absolutely, I will. I'm so sorry to hear that.

Just, uh, tell me what he looks like.

Mister Kleckner (http://www.laborgal.com/deux.jsp?content=509&decider=emoscowitz), as he was writ last year anyhow, aka this dude (http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?pid=2459349&op=9&o=global&view=global&subj=1280737510&id=656523645) if it's visible to you on Facebook.

I'm sure I retained his SCA name and affiliation and etc. for 10 minutes at some point but I've made enormous effort to paper over those neurons. He thinks very highly of himself, and his skills as a raconteur. He was absolutely horrible to me last year, having taken me in utterly and then dumped me without even a warning. He deserves to get thrown into a pile of something very nasty.

It just dawned on me that you would be the perfect person to ask about using henna hair dye! My doctor has told me I can't dye my hair while pregnant, but henna being chemical free is safe. I have never used henna before and I am totally intimidated by it. I haven't dyed my hair since December and I have a lot of grey including a big silver Rogue from the X-Menish streak on my right side.

I know you're crazy busy with Pennsic, but if you have a moment when you get back and things settle down would you mind answering a few questions?

Sure! Ask away. Also, check out this site because it has a lot more info than I know about henna:

Thanks! Have you ever used the LUSH henna products? I don't really know where else to get henna out here, other than ordering it online.

For what it's worth, I've ordered from the site

nisaa linked to and always been very, very happy with the results. I would highly recommend them as an online source.

On a positive note, should you run into a kiwi guy with a shaved head (mundane name Dillon), be nice to him! He's a good friend of mine. :)

Have a great time!

EXCITED!

So here is our official policy on non-baronesses:

While the mobile amoking is reserved for Baronesses, one way to get in
on the fun is for us to bring the party to you!
Let Baronesses Leonete or Vairavi know that you want to be an "Amoking
Point" and we will try to stop by and enliven your evening without you
having to so much as leave your camp.

We'd love to stop by and visit y'all if you'd like!

That would be great! Please stop by La Familia on your travels.

YAY!!
