When I'm not playing with computers in an attempt to create deathless prose or bring home the bacon, I belong to the Society for Creative Anachronism, a medieval research and re-creation group which has been around since 1966 and that's a long time!).

Each of us in the SCA has our own persona: mine is Siobhan Medhbh O'Roarke.

Several of you have asked for copies of the fealty ceremony which I use to take new members into my household.

Miscellaneous feast menus and other food topics not covered in this edition of the book...

Other things to do:

My dear friend and sister, Mistress Siobhan ni hEodhusa, died tragically in May, 2006. I have issued a challenge to the Knowne Worlde to take up a new skill in her honor. Read more here on the challenge page,, and register your own response to the challenge!

This is the index to my Dress Diaries:
Explore with me the new and dangerous world of researching medieval clothing!

Visit my liegewoman,Dame Cynthia du Pre Argent. Famed far and wide for her silly Hats. On this site are some great articles about clothing and fabric as well as hats; my favorite is the Tunic Worksheet,which has an automated calculator to help you figure out how to cut authentic Tunics. (Altho the instructions on being a Hoodlum are pretty cool, too.)

My sister, Viscountess Gwyneth Felton of Northshield who lives in Caer Anterth Mawr (Milwaukee, WI)
Interests, specialties and skills: weaving, archery, SCA business, cooking (We have nothing in common, honest.)
