[ text | On Winter Storing and The Husbandry of All Animals for The Lake Folks Good] @gilia.stloe
To: The Good People of This Lake, Our New Spirits in Attendance, and All Others Whom I have Not Yet Come To Know,
It has come to my understanding, that we have no taken proper stock of all items we shall need for the coming winter. This worries me, if we have no stores, what might become of us, or any others that seek shelter here? There is no crops in the fields to take in, when it so near to harvest time.
So I have taken it upon myself, to take full account of all products of food, grain, drinkable liquids, ales and their similarity, spices, livestock, both that I have seen kept and could be capture and kept, hides, lathers, cloth, and other such items that I have seen but do not wholly know the purpose of.
Please find included the list thereof:
[ The list is just that as follows, and it is long, it is detailed, and she hasn't slept thanks for asking, she has had to count everything. Some of it she clearly has no idea what it is for. All the things you'd expect her to know have been given with notes beside them about the best method of storing: whether that's pickling, salting, smoking, dry jars up high to keep away from moisture in well-airated rooms. Do you people know you have literal, WHOLE CONTAINERS OF CINNAMON?!?!?!? DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY THAT IS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Then there are other things that she has simply placed a question mark next to: chocolate, candies, whatever the fuck a 'bleach' is. Do you eat that? ]
Much of this food is fresh, clearly a harvest from another place. But none of it will last more than two weeks more if we do not preserve it. Which is where I must request for any one of able body who can assist me. I fear what will come of us if we do not immediately seek to preserve the food we have been given. If you have not the knowledge of how a task should be done, please do but ask - I am Second Child, and it is my duty and task to see after my people's good, and see to our winter stocks every day for our entire island, to which I can provide instruction in the preserving of all food and other items.
I hope you can find the time to help me in this endeavour as I pray you know it is for all our goods over the season yet to come,
