[Sca-cooks] Mace and Must Substitute

[Sue Clemenger]

"Blades" of mace actually do look kinda cthulu-oid.  I don't know what 
they look like when fresh, but dried, they remind me of seaweed somehow, 
or lichen.
Not having a middle eastern grocery anywhere in the entire state of 
Montana (AFAIK), I ordered mine from the Pepperers' Guild.
