| Haire Affaire Feast of Omens, Signs and Portents, Oh My…. First remove: Halfes of Egges Crescent Moon Rolls Shooting Star Salad Second Remove: Chykenes with “Entrayles” Rye Brede Ravens Third Remove: Tartee Welsh Rabbit Peascoddes Buttered Sweets: Langues du Chat Gateau des Rois What does it signify? Half eggs left open are unlucky (hopefully that does not apply to deviled eggs) Just the growing moon, or is it an eclipse? Comets (here made of carrots) usher in dramatic changes, good or bad Haruspices interpret entrails (what does it mean if they are made of pasta?) Augurs interpret the flight of birds. A raven on the right is favorable. The pig is good luck to Germans, but bad luck on a boat or returning from a wedding. What about pork in a pie with fruits and spices? This cheese sauce on toast is dinner for the clumsy Welsh rabbit-hunter. Just as well since rabbits are considered bad luck in many times and places. An Elizabeth lover plucks a peascod from the vine. If the peas stay inside, his lady loves him. Cat got your tongue? No you have the cat’s tongue (langue du chat), but no cats, black or otherwise were harmed to make these buttery cookies. The marzipan cake will choose the king. If you find the bean, put on the crown. |
