I don't think we are talking about chucking whole platters of venison across 
the hall (wait...are we?), but rather a little light hearted hi-jynx after 
the repast has finished.  Crusts of uneaten bread, pieces of nuts, 
pudding...that sort of thing.

to THAT feast)

Such a strange fascination, as I wallow in waste
That such a trivial victory could put a smile on your face.
