[Herbalist] UCLA Medicinal Spices Exhibit

[Jenne Heise]

This was reviewed in LIIWEEK, and it's an excellent site. Of special
interest are the images of the different spices which can be enlarged to
life size to help with identifying what you brought home from the Pepper's
Guild. :)

 Spices: Exotic Flavors and Medicines
