How long have you been a part of the SCA?

I joined the sca the summer before Pennsic 14, making it 35 years. I have been a merchant all of that time.

What unusual item needs to be on everyone’s packing list?

Everyone should have access to silk if the persona allows it. It was something about suck that makes everyone feel upper class. And I make it available and the price that even a peasant can afford!

What is your favorite memory of something that happened at an event?



My current husband proposed to me at Pensic. He was carried through the merchant area on a sedan chair throwing beads to the populace, and his knight negotiated with my friends for my bride price.

Which event is your favorite every year and why?



Pensic because it’s where I see my family
