St Andrews in Focus - Issue 35 - July / August 2009

From the Editor

Flora SelwynThe English poet, Gervase Markham (1568-1637), wrote in 1615, among many other things:

“The English huswife containing the inward and outward vertues which ought to be in a compleat woman, as her skill in physick, surgery, cookery, extraction of oyles, banqueting stuffe, ordering of great feasts, preserving of all sorts of wines, conceited secrets, distillations, perfumes, ordering of wooll, hemp, flax, making cloth, and dying, the knowledge of dayries, office of malting of oates, their excellent uses in a family, of brewing, baking, and all other things belonging to an household.”

And you thought multi-tasking was a 20th century invention??

I hope the sun shines for us this summer. Wherever you are, have a wonderful time.

Flora Selwyn
