Good Day, All!

Since this is the time of the Double-Birthday here at Ravensgard, I was perusing various websites about … the Mongol/SCA/,,,,, Birthday Song!

There are a minimum of a dozen sites that all pretty much give the same (up to 40!) verses, but the only consistent one for cooks & cookery is

You're a period cook, 'tis true; 
Ask the beetles in your stew.

There are also the following, getting progressively less relevant...
 
— Children dying everywhere
 They say that cancer's caused by beer (bheer?)

—Now you've lived another year
age to you is like stale beer

--Indigestion's what you get
From the enemies you 'et

**Anybody looking for something to do over Xmas is more than welcome to try a couplet!
