Portugal?!

 You will notice that my previous menus all have Elisabetta Foscari written on them!  During lockdown in 2020 I spent some time considering what I wanted out of the SCA.  I had been considering moving to a Portuguese persona for some time as a way of exploring my mundane heritage but was a bit afraid of taking the plunge!  I decided during lockdown that I should just do it!  And there was Joana!  Here is an article I wrote exploring the process of picking and registering my new name.  This also gave me the chance to explore a whole need culinary culture!  There is one 16th century Portuguese cookbook in existence and I chose to discuss this for the first Colegio de Iberia.  My notes for this are here.  Having done more research into this work since the class I don't feel my presentation is entirely correct but it was a good place to start.  You can view my class below!
