Hail there, All,


As most of you now know,
I have decided to introduce
the cafe/teahouse that I have
been running at medieval fairs
into this wonder-filled arena
of eletronica/psytrance that
I have recently rejoined
after being distant
for ten years.

The teahouse/kasbah has popularly
been known as "The Elysian Dream"
which means, the dream of paradise.
In past fairs it has manifested as a
Viking "FriendShip" and, at times,
it takes the form of a Lighthouse.

Here is a fairly complete list of
the items and supplies that I have
assembled in Portland for the Psy-cicle
Winter Soulstice event. It is near guaranteed
that there will be snow on the ground, so...
hot beverages and other delights for
our creature comforts will be
very nice to have aplenty.

I also listed below the items that I have in Eugene,
with the rest of my pile o' booty. I may be able
to manage a trip there before the event.
In the case that I am unable to, I also listed
the missing items should anyone be interested
in donating to the dream, bartering, or contributing...
for the benefit of All who choose paradise.

Supplies currently in Portaland:

Custom incenses
4 Turkish Coffee Ibriks
16 cup stove top percolator
50? cup electric percolator

wide assortment of bagged teas

5 canisters instant chai base (11 servings each)
2 oz of supplimentary chai spice
3 tea ball steepers
1 lid resting tea strainer
5 lbs white sugar
1 1/2 lbs brown sugar
assorted spices for food
5 insulated pump pots for liquid

1 8' X 10' cabin tent
1 6' X 8' cabin tent
1/2 gallon lamp/tiki fuel

Please note that I don't hassle with food service
but there's a very good possibilty that Open Heart cafe
will be collaborating for this event. I talked with Jared today
and we will converse again tomorrow night at the Cathedral.

Requests:

[Please bring your own insulated mugs
as I do not have enough for everyone and
such items will prove invaluable in the climate.]

To-go cups
Tapestries*
Hookah/shisha
Stove/fuel preferably propane*
Liquor/Hard Alcohol**
Shelter Pavilion/Canopy

*: see items in Eugene below

**: Alcohol would be nice for
keeping us warm and jolly.
I don't recommend bringing
lot's of beer as it will make for
more trips to the bushes/biffies,
which seems like it would be
more of a bother for ladies.

With a fifth of Everclear
I can make a gallon of Mokahlua
(aka Merlin's Magnificent Mocha Magic.)
It is a nice chocolate coffee liquor which
brings us up almost as much
as it mellows us out.

With BarronJaeger (honey liqueur), I can make "Elysian Bliss,"
which has a similar effect as Mokahlua,
but uses chai instead of coffee.

Items currently in Eugene:

20 tiki torches
4 exotic tapestries
Abundant candles/
candlesticks and holders
2-2 burner kerosene camp stoves

Items we can never have enough of:

honey
chocolate
coffee/tea
candles/torches
charcoal disks for incense/shisha
pillows/blankets
whipped cream
condoms
sugar & spice
and everything nice ;)-


Please respond here
or by personal message
if you plan to bring any of
these suggested supplies.
(As it just may save me a trip
down to Eugene (Adiantum.)
Investing in paradise is
a good thing indeed.

Blessed Be,
