Hi, 

Wasn't the giant egg recipe in Hannah Glasse?  If it features earlier 
than that, I'd like to know.  Had a feeling that the ship and frog 
and deer subtelties mentioned came from May, but my book with both 
May and Taillevent stuff is in storage, so will trust your judgement. 
At a Tewlfth-Night about 4 years ago saw a wonderful marzipan 
subtelty which was the boar's head.  Meant the vegetarians could have 
some too.  

Did my last message, containing the coriander drag(u?)ees and 
documentation come through?  I can probably send it again if not.  
Problems with the machinery this end too.

Incidentally, re. the PC/meat discussion of a few days ago, the only 
meat I won't eat is from a) mammals which are obligate carnivores 
and b) possums (I'm Australian and possums, while reasonably edible, 
have some disgusting personal habits which I would prefer not to 
ingest, however indirectly).

cheers
Cairistiona
