would imagine that the difference
Dear Gentle Spiders,
If you haven't asked David to send you his tastful lacemaking "in the
water," please do so. Really neat. He also sent me the Power Point picture

Happy Lacemaki

Dear Jean and others of the Poole lace group,
Well, the "little jam rolls" falls into the usual genre of "CSI Miami,"

Dear Dora,
I have several editions of BH&G cook books (I used to collect them), and
can't find any "cloves - the spice" used. But then who knows what they
mean - I am missing the1953 edition.
I never make a recipe exactly as the "test cooks" say we should. The

I think it is a citrus peeler and section separator. Clive's German auntie
who lived in W. London, had a similar one. She used the hook to score the
peel from top to base, then used the other side to remove the peel and
