It also helps to explain that in this part of the world, cooks who
aren't just cooking for fun (i.e. doing exactly what they want to do and
nothing else) get paid around $15/hour, often more, and that butter
looks pretty cold and hard, perhaps they should come back in three or
four hours.

But yes, you awful person, you, how dare you try to introduce change to
the Ancient and Venerable Traditions of Ignorance fostered by some
SCAdians? I bet you even call removes courses, and don't like being
called a feastocrat!
