Something from the Steps in An Tir.

Somehow, linking cooks and lazyness seems odd and uninformed...

LAZY LAURENCE:	"An indolent person, possibly an allusion to the hot season during which St. Laurence's Day falls.  There is also a tradition that the phrase is derived from a sneer by the executioner of St. Laurence, who attributed the latter's steadfastness under torture to his laziness."
W. & R. Chambers's 'English Dictionary', 1898

Feast Day of St. Lawrence
patron saint of cooks, who was literally grilled to death over a fire.  During his ordeal, he is said to have joked with his tormentors, telling them he was done on one side and needed to be turned.

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and
