The ritual will be followed by a pitch-in feast. They will provide cutlery, table service, and drinks - and leave the rest to the humor of the Deities, so feel free to participate in Divine laughter by bringing a precooked, assembled, fully prepared dish or two to share. Directions? Comments? Questions? Please email the Silver Cauldron Coven through their website: http://www.silvercauldroncoven.com.
