> Then there was the feast that was being planned, Lady X was to be the cook and Laurel/Pelican Y was to be the autocrat, names deleted to protect the guilty. When I heard the line up I asked a most reasonable if cheeky question, "That's nice... who is going to marshal?" It was not a pretty battle for dominance and the feast was best described as a culinary atrocity.
*blink* Wait, people have used that line in reference to events that
I've been involved in... but I don't think you're from my area. I'm
confused.
Once, as an autocrat, I got stuck working with the person who had least
respect for me in the world as my cook. She regarded it as an insult
that I wanted to see the menu. I survived. I've cooked at events where
she autocrated since then, but it's never easy (still easier than the
other way around, though...)
