We just need Vallo and Edward to conclude their meeting and post their night cap before we move onward.

Sorry for the delay - been absolutely swamped out this way. I should have a post up tonight.

Recipes from the Locke Kitchen

CRANBERRY-SAUCED PORK CHOPS

*Boneless Pork Chops (any cut)
*1 tablespoon margarine or butter
*1/2 cup apple cider or apple juice
*1/2 of a 16-ounce can cranberry sauce (jellied)
*2 tablespoons sliced green onion
*2 teaspoons cornstarch
*1 teaspoon brown sugar
*1/2 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel

1. Trim fat from meat. Sprinkle chops lightly with pepper. In a 12-inch skillet cook chops in hot margarine or butter over medium-high heat about 4 minutes or till brown, turning once. Drain off fat.

2. Pour apple cider or juice over chops. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 5 to 6 minutes or till no pink remains in pork chops and juices run clear. Transfer pork chops to a platter, reserving 2 cup juices in skillet. Keep warm.

3. For sauce, stir together cranberry sauce, green onion, cornstarch, brown sugar, and orange peel. Stir into reserved juices in skillet. Cook and stir over medium heat till thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. To serve, spoon sauce atop chops.

Larry, - could you go ahead and post for Edward so we can let things move forward?

Looks like my schedule's not going to lighten up as quickly as I thought.

Sure thing, man. I'll get that done tonight I hope.

is it the next day yet, nothing is really happening

[Larry_OHF]

As of now, yes.

The town can be considered passed through the night and beginning the next morning.

After making your initial posts to bring you into the feeling of the new day, I please ask that nobody make a reference to the time of day or passing of time without careful consideration as to what the results would be on the game as a whole, including your companions. We'll avoid more sticky moments like the one we just worked through if everyone will leave that up to the DM on duty. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Larry had earlier asked me to write up a price list for Vindson. While I haven't yet got around to this, anyone who is looking for armor or weapons of any type can come and see Vindson, and he would most probably be happy to sell or make them.

The most probably was bolded there, because I think it needs to be said here that Vindson wouldn't make or sell high-end stuff for someone unless he knew and trusted that person. Low and mid-range items are all available for the players however.

There is also other factors to think of, such as Plate armors have to be individually fitted for the wearer and can't be bought "off the rack" other heavy armors like Banded mail and Splint mail are similar but easier to adjust, but still require work, the easiest by far is chain-mail (a redundancy) which stretches a bit more easily, and need only be made for certain body types (large, medium, small, etc
