SC - OT: Weird Dream

I have never cooked a feast, although I have worked as a scullery maid and
general wash-it/chop-it person.  Last night I dreamed I cooked my first
feast for some 150 people.  Apparantly I was the only cook with only a few
helpers.  I had some strong suspicions that I/we weren't making enough sauce
(looked, in retrospect, to be about 4 cups) to serve all the folk but the
chicken was broiling/baking okay.  A strange person appeared in the kitchen
and I said "Hello, Adamantius".  And, it turned out to be Adamantius.
Weird, because I have never met the gentleman.   This is the first
"frustration-mare" I have had about cooking in my mumblety-mumble years of
cooking for family and self.  I have had frequent frustrationmares about
teaching, however.  (A frustrationmare is like a nightmare only not scary,
just frustrating to the "nth" degree.  Anyone else dream weird stuff about
cooking?
