Linking your favorite traveling artists across the globe
My aunt and I visited the Willowfield Lavender Farm in Mooresville, IN this past weekend. The rows of lavender blooming were beautiful, and smelled delicious. The Lavender-Raspberry tea and Lavender cookies were heavenly and available for purchase. I bought a few bags of dried lavender petals, and began brainstorming culinary ideas. (www.willowfieldlavender.com)
Incorporating other herbs from my garden with the dried lavender was the goal. I decided to bake a loaf of Lavender Herb Bread. This was my first time cooking with Lavender, and I was very satisfied with the sweet and savory flavors of this bread.  The bread was enjoyed the next morning toasted with an egg, and for a tasty veggie sandwich at lunch.
Lavender Herb Bread:
Directions:
In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in water. In a larger bowl (or stand mixer bowl), mix together the cottage cheese, honey, butter, herbs, baking soda and eggs. Stir in the yeast mixture. Gradually add flour to form a stiff dough (1/2 cup at a time), beating well after each addition. Cover with a towel and let dough rise about 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.
Stir the dough down with a spoon. Place in a well-buttered 1 1/2 to 2 qt. casserole dish or ten individual pie tins (which make great dinner rolls). Let dough rise again 30 to 40 minutes, or until doubled in bulk.
Bake at 350˚ F for one hour for a large loaf, 20 to 30 minutes for small loaves. Remove from oven and turn onto a rack, brush the top(s) with soft butter and let cool.
Yield: 1 round loaf or 10 individual dinner rolls

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.
Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.
Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.
As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.
We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.
Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.
Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.
Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"
A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?
After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...
Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
