Its 87 wood-cut illustrations are by Edward Burne-Jones, the celebrated Victorian painter, who was a life-long friend of Morris. The illustrations were engraved by William Harcourt Hooper and printed in black, with shoulder and side titles.” https://www.kelmscottchauceronline.org/full-pages Servings: grains 4/6, fruit 0/4, vegetables 3/4, dairy 3/2, meat 2/3, nuts 0/0.5 Breakfast: left-over pizza, carrots Brunch: coffee Afternoon snack: cupcake Dinner: meatloaf, mashed potatoes, green beans
