I remember being awarded the Maunche, the East Kingdom's OHM for the  
arts, while cooking. Apparently they called my name in Court, which  
I, of course, did not hear, then somebody came into the kitchen to  
fetch me. "Waddayawaaaaant???" (This last was allegedly quite audible  
in the main hall...) Halfway between the kitchen door and the Royal  
Presence I had to break out, run back, stick my head in the kitchen  
door and say, "Can you turn those apples before they burn? I'm  
smelling them out here!"

Congrats, Iasmine!
