== Cardamom, Spice of Spices ==

<blockquote>
Cardamom, Spice of Spices!

I wish I were on an Arab dhow full of cardamom right now, headed for Genoa (circa 1489).  
 
As it happens, I am enslaved aboard the dhow.

But it's okay, I will be traded for two bales of fine wool, so at least I will have a Christian master again.
