recipes. These are from my cooking-flowers-msg file.

> There are plenty of recipes using Rose Hips in Elinor Fettiplace
> (Renaissance cooking I know).  Also Martha Washington's too I believe.  If
> you cannot get hold of these two, give me a call and I'll bring them with me
> next time I visit your group.
