[Sca-cooks] Interesting period words

[Huette von Ahrens]

Someone on the other list reminded me that
"webster" was a female weaver and "spinster"
was a female spinner.  Spinster as an unmarried
woman came into play in the 17th century.

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they 
shall never cease to be amused.
