I got to know Genevia at a feast this spring at which she sat in the 
kitchen for hours patiently peeling a very sticky dough from the waxed 
paper sheets it had been rolled between, glopping chicken filling 
between them and closing them up.  She must have made a hundred or more.  
All by herself. 

><remembering that chicken was not common until the middle of this 
century>

the cook said he had the pastry and filling recipes from period sources, 
though the recipe was for big pies not individual servings.  He hasn't 
yet given us the recipes though.
