Can you give us more details on this contest? Or Mistress Christiana, if you
are around, could you do so? How many haggi did you get? How many were period
recipes? Were any of these from my haggis-msg file? :-) (If not, I'm always
looking for more period recipes). How many of these actually used stomach for

Your first attempt? Really? Were both the leaves and haggi made out of

marzipan? I like the way you shaded things, particularly the haggis
casings.
