You should recognise who it's about. Hope you enjoy it: *The Chef - from /?The Lost Canterbury Tales?/* A Chef there was, clept Gordon, who had soared to prominence, and had a voice that roared more loudly than a trans-Atlantic gale. Perfection was his culinary Grail, and if, perchance, an underling fell short, their pleadings and excuses came to naught; for those not gastronomically inspired, he duly shamed, then summarily fired. >From Michelin he?d garnered several stars for grand cuisine, yet served not deep fried bars (10) of chocolate in his eateries, a food on which his fellow Scotsmen often chewed. Quod Gordon: ?I would rather eat a turd than graze on what sustains the common herd. Crisp vegetables and sundry fruits are best, with relish and exotic sauces dressed.? And likewise he was critical of wealth, that fostered ?mongst the well-to-do ill health; for diets of the rich contained much meat, promoting clogged up arteries, and feet (20) made swollen by the ravages of gout, and bodies that grew steadily more stout. Blond-haired and craggy-featured, Gordon spoke in coarsest terms - as might the rudest folk - which cleaved him to the average person?s heart. This set him from most other chefs apart, since unlike chefs of old who piled on weight by scoffing every morsel on their plate, his moderation kept his body fit, maintaining, too, his sharp and biting wit. (30) /Hell?s Kitchen/was his eatery of fame, and with expletive-ridden rants he?d blame apprentices for mishaps and might shout for instance: ?This is fucking raw! Get out!? He also toured the shires to test the fare of nightmare inns, where landlords would beware; for if instead of ?Chef?, they called him ?Cook?, he?d hang their genitalia from a hook. Thus ends my sketch of Gordon, who, though crude, with gastronomic talent was imbued. ?(40) (Paul A.

This is, however, a lovely Chaucerian parody poking fun at Gordon Ramsey, who's "Hell's Kitchen" television program I avoid.

I am always looking for good articles for the Florilegium. If you have researched something in our period or you practice a little known art or craft, writing an article is an excellent way to introduce others to the work you've done. I'm especially interested in academic papers written for A&S contests because, unfortunately, few have time at such an event to read them. Even the judges. Getting them published in the Florilegium lets your hard word benefit the entire Known World. Word format is the easiest for me to handle, but others are possible. You don't have to be finished with your research or have a "perfect" article. Other people can still learn from and be inspired by what you've already done. You keep the copyright and you can always update it in the future. If you're already sent something, but haven't heard back from me, please feel free to email me again. Possibly I didn't get it or I'm waiting for additional permissions or for answers to some questions or even simply having trouble with the original article format. Thanks, Stefan ======== A Blending of the Past and Present Over the past twenty-seven years in an ongoing effort, I have been collecting bits of useful information from various newsgroups, mail lists, facebook groups, and articles whose authors have given me permission to publish. In order to make this information available to others, I have placed this information in a collection of files called Stefan's Florilegium. The Florilegium is on the web at: http://www.florilegium.org I am always interested in new articles. If you have written an article that would be of interest to others in the SCA, please send it to me for possible inclusion in the Florilegium. A&S documentation and class handouts will also often work well. I am especially interested in research papers submitted as A&S entries. If you see someone's A&S documentation or perhaps an article in a local newsletter that you think deserves a wider audience, please let me know. I won't publish anything without the author's permission, but many authors are too reserved to send me their articles on their own.
