SC - Raisin tonic for arthritis-OOP/OT

[Alderton, Philippa]

Hummmmm..... Seems to me that those well-pickled raisins would result in
some well pickled arthritics, who wouldn't CARE if their arthritis hurts.
Lots like a few other fruit and alcohol recipes I've tried, so I 'spect
I'll add it to my repertoire. Thanks, Ras.

: Put raisins in a large jar.  Cover with gin.  Cover; store at room
temperature
: for 9 days.  Beginning on the 10 day eat 9 raisins a day.  It is reported
that
: if this regime is adhered to strictly, relief from arthritic pains and

Since
