[Sca-cooks] Cook's Prayer, was RE: 9/11 SCA cooks

[Ana Valdes]

Thank to all! By the way, I cooked a real Scandinavian "period" meal
the other day. Wildboar, hunted by a friend, soaked in homemade mead
made by another friend who keeps bees.
And to the wildboar we roasted on the oven turnips and roots and all
the stuff wild boar should find in the Scandinavian woods where the
animal was hunted.
We had two young guests, one was 13 and the other 16, they are more
used to hamburgers and pasta than to wildboars :)
But they loved it!!
