For some info on the period use of plums take a look at these files in the
FOOD section of my Stefan's Florilegium:
fruits-msg (174K) 8/31/98 Medieval fruits and fruit dishes. Recipes.
puddings-msg (28K) 8/28/98 Medieval puddings. recipes.
And this one in the FOOD-SWEETS section:
Sugarplums-art (19K) 7/15/98 "Visions of Sugarplums" by Mistress
Renata Kestryl of Highwynds.
