I'm getting all kinds of ideas here....
Having a list for the next day after one of my feasts. Melees where I defend
my dishes by right of arms against those who had complaints about my seasonings
or if they don't like lamb...
Making a hunt with fighters dressed as animals and then making a feast with
whatever the "hunters" bring home...
I'm beginning to see all sorts of possibilities for mixing fighting and feasts.
I have been called out of the kitchen upon occassion, usually loudly proclaiming
that I can't be bothered, I'm cooking. Maybe sometime I'll walk out in full
armor and wearing a chef's hat.
Hmmm...
