has it online now. It's not really necessary to buy the hard copy any
longer.
There's Cindy's Take A Thousand Eggs or More

Ordinance of Pottage is OP and has been for years. $80 and up on the
used market.
Hieatt's *Curye on Inglysch: Middle English Recipes -
English Culinary Manuscripts of the Fourteenth Century (Early English
Text Society Supplementary S.)*
is still available.Gee why are these titles so familiar?
Also available Concordance of English Recipes: 13^th to 15^th Centuries
- $29.95 Constance Hieatt, Terry Nutter, & Johnna Holloway.
If you are going to do English works, you might as well get the cross
index. And that is not a shameless commercial
plug, although I will be happy to sign it if we ever meet at an event or
conference.
You could just ask for a gift certificate from Poison Pen Press.
