Strawberries are in season, so I'm making a properly jester-type sweet.  A
"Fool" is about two parts of sweetened fruit pulp or puree mixed with one cup
of cream, as measured before whipping.  Or maybe one part fruit to two parts
of cream.  Mix it however you like. Think of it as what they had before Ice
Cream was invented.  Yum!

Documentation mavins:  GodeCookery.com lists a Gooseberry Fool with "Modern
Recipes for Beginners" but claims it to originate in the 15th Century,
without attribution.  Yum anyway.
