hey all from Anne-Marie

back when I first started doing SCA banquets, Frugal Gourmet was as close to documentation as we 
got. wow, we've come a long way!

interestingly, if you're familiar with the period sources, you can see the influences in his 
recipes, which to my mind puts it head and shoulders above Fab Feasts. not to mention, his stuff is 
tasty. I plead the fifth on Fab Feasts in that regard....
