Great! It sounds like the orange flower water would be nice to have on hand. I have Digbie, though I have perused it mostly for the meads. There is only one version of it, right? I picked up a book titled something like "Penns family recipies", and it looks like there is supposed to be another volume for medicinal remedies, but I cant seem to find it.
I still need to aquire Cariadoc's two-volume collection.
Thanks!
