My name is Tim Morgan and I’m a 40-something guy living in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. I’ll talk more about myself as this series of postings goes on, but the important bits are:
- I have a great and abiding love for the history Medieval, Classical and Iron Age Europe.
- I am, by trade, inclination and passion, a gamer. I play and write pen-and-paper roleplaying games (like Dungeons and Dragons). I play board games and computer games. Someday, I may write a computer game.
- I am very interested in how things work, the rules by which processes and institutions operate.
These three things have led me to this blog, where I am going to post about my strange and naive experiments into re-creating various aspects of pre-modern life. I will be:
- Planting and raising my own grain
- Hand Milling the grain
- Baking Bread
- Building a medieval-style quern
- Building an oven
- Cooking food the way the common folk would do it, making pottage and soaking grain
- Brewing Mead and Ale
- Reviews and discussions of books and other media about Medieval/Iron Age life
- and anything else along those lines that interests me
