I have an old surcoate I used to throw over whatever I had on.  Now the 
Cook's Guild has aprons.  Very spiff.  They have our names, Baronial Badge, 
off to one side down by the pocket they have our motto:  "Always the Best 
from Bright Hills".

As for my emabarrasing Crown story;
When we got hired to cook for a RP event in Stierbach, the King kept coming 
into the kitchen to complement us.  After the feast, he popped in again.  To 
the dismay of our Guild, I popped out with "MAJ".  It stuck.  I then had to 
take him over to the cooler for a cold one.  He gave me the cap off the 
Voodoo Red bottle which is now sewn onto my apron.

It's just one dumb thing after another in my life.  But oh, the fun!
