Here is the tentative menu for Baronial Birthday.  She has asked folks to
bring in the references.  I think most of them came from Apicius although I
am not sure.  We did opt for a few things from Ein Buch von Guter Spise and
we are toying with the idea of an old Jewish recipe.  Here it is only listed
who brought what dish.  I can let you know after our meeting this weekend
unless you are familiar with these recipes.
