No... I inadvertantly set the cat among the pigeons. In response to the
query "are fruit pastries period?", I replied that the question was too
vague. One might as well ask if beef stew was period (it is, but not all
kinds). When I say "beef stew" I only assume pieces of beef cooked in
a liquid thicker than soup, though vegetables are a pleasant addition. I
should, perhaps, have said "stewed beef" instead.
