SC - Phillipa and her d*mn project <giggle>

[Alderton, Philippa]

Cuz, while I'm very much a fan of Authentic preiod cooking, or at least as
authentic as we can produce, I can certainly understand your desire to make
edible foods for your preferences.

In many of these recipes, you'll see a phrase to the effect of (and if ye
haf not enow, then add "whatever") (or on a fische day, use almonde milke).

Yes, I agree that we should use the most period ingredients whenever we can.
Yes, I sgree that when we make non-period substitutions, we should not call
it period.

Lady Phillipa is attempting to make edible food for herself and others with
specific problems- she is modeling it on medieval food, but at no time has
she claimed that it is actually period food- she has made that abundantly
clear.

Cariadoc, you're being a Grouch! Kindly ask your Lady Elizabeth to hit you
with a shoe! Tell her your other wife, who also understands your humor,
said!
