I am so very VERY sorry, but I can not do my reading. Been very sick lately, and looks like I will be for some time yet. I have to cancel my reading of Section 1. It's just not going to happen any time soon. I am so sorry.

At the risk of being pedantic, the word "receipt" was used to mean recipe well into the 20th century and is common in 18th and 19th century "cookery books." (I have several "receipts" from my grandmother who would have gotten them about the time this particular book was published).

Hope this is helpful.

Many thanks,

I've marked this PL OK, but at 2:13, 'the name of Harold' should be 'the noble name of Harold'. I'll let you decide if you want to change it.

Carolin,

Hi April,

Here are your notes:

4:37: 'from which the children' should be 'from watching the children'
5:47 (not required): 'sword' is pronounced like 'sord'

Hello Jordan,
re: 5:47
What is it you mean with the not required in parentheses? I do pronounce the w in sword, always have.

By 'not required', I mean it's up to you if you think it's needs changing. And it seems like you're happy with it as it is.

Thank you, I appreciate your leaving it up to me. I realize there is one more item that I need to fix & I will take care of that tomorrow.

I think the main reason is to point out things that aren't required to be fixed, but that the reader might not be aware they did. So in this case, I thought you just had a brain-fart and forgot that 'sword' was a word. I apologize for not realising it was a deliberate choice (though in my defence, I did look in multiple dictionaries to see if it was an alternative pronunciation I was unaware of, and couldn't find any).
