I would also like to ask if I may mention the ball to some friends in the "empire" society or if it limited for spaces? (I am thinking about plasmaregn and operafantomet in particular. It would be a fun trip if we could fill a car.)

nazgman had a Swedish cookbook from 1876 that we looked through. Jellies don't seem to have been very big in these parts, but there were lots of puddings with strange names. I found something called "Ägg-Bubbert" that I'm going to try and make. It seemed pretty low-carb. :)
bracke took some photos, but she hasn't sent them to me yet ( ... )

We need to think a bit more about the dancing...I'm sure we could find enough interested people to make a workshop worth your while, but it is still long to travel.
