Yes, there are a number of messages on pickled lemons in the Florilegium.
Either in the pickled-food-msg file or possibly the fruits-citrus-msg
file. However "Little Women" is well past our period, so unless that
was part of another message on period pickled lemons or modern ways to
do them, I doubt it's in the Florilegium.

Ok, I do have a file on Aethelmearc's first Crown Tourney. This is in
the FEASTS section:
rec-AFCF-art      (25K)  9/17/97    Recipes from Aethemearc's First
Crown Feast.

Thanks for reminding me of this one, I would not have remembered that
detail.
