[Sca-cooks] OOP OT I'm back

[Marian Deborah Rosenberg]

Hi,

  Some of you may remember me.  I used to be active on this list.  Then came
the attack of senior year of college and I simply didn't have the time to read
the list.  I just re-subscribed and hopefully will be here for another good
long while.

  In the past 6 months I don't really have any wonderful period food news.
I've got some wonderful historical cook book news but no wonderful period food
news.

  If anyone remembers my class dinner project, the teacher nixed the whole
dinner idea and let me make one dish for it.  I ended up making Torta Sambuccea
for the Renaissance and Reformation class dinner.  Unfortunately, they turned
out not to be cooked enough to set and weren't eaten.  The next day someone
stole them out of the Literary House freezer.  I'm still pissed about this.
(This is probably the same sort of idiot ... or considering campus size the
same idiot ... who caused access to the Larabee Arts building to be denied to
students by stealing art work off the walls!)

  If anyone remembers the whole broken leg thing, I'm walking, and quite well.

  That's about all I can think of, I plan to return to my active role as a
lurker who knows almost nothing about period cookery but who really really
wants to know and who asks lots of questions.
