[Carper, Rachel]

REallY? Because I thought it was popular in Atlantia. Shows you what
memory will do. My mideaval history prof in college was always talking
Fast and Feast. I'll have to find it.

It's been a long time since I've read it; but I have looked at the
recipes since then, and they really are quite bad. The text is supposed
to be better than the recipes, but if you want a text on period food I'd
suggest Bridget Henisch's _Fast and Feast_ instead.
