Silly poem

[_JM_]

A silly poem made up during a DM event, but not recited to some Frost Giants as they decided they would prefer to be gutted by Seamus (also undercover as an entertainer).

====

A most magificient Giantess is Rennahan,
She once decided that she would make a flan,
So out she went to catch a man,
And servants cooked him up all nice and tan.

Now that person went by the name of Dan,
His fate led to his wife going quite insan.(e),
And his father had to explain to the Gran,
How Rennahan had a flan that was made from Dan.

Now the Gran of the Man whose name was Dan,
Was a magess of skill and she had a plan,
She would seek out and kill Lady Rennahan,
But all she achieved was to provide another Flan.

So sing of our Lady called Rennahan,
Who had a quite tasty flan that was made from Dan,
And one not so quite nice made from his Gran,
But both Dan and his Gran were cooked nice and tan.

From "A history of Flan" at: http://flan.holidaycook.com/history.shtml

Interestingly, flan found two different outlets. In Spain it became a sweet custard generally made with caramelized sugar. The mixture of milk, eggs and sugar was cooked slowly in crocks and relished by many. Besides the Roman influence, the Moors introduced citrus and almonds which are commonly found to flavor flan. Once Christopher Columbus found America the rush to the riches of the region brought the richness of flan with it. Nearly all of Central and South America loves flan in its various custardly forms. It has become especially associated with Mexico where flan is exquisitely produced in the kitchens of rich and poor alike.

England, with its love for pastry crusts, went its own way and developed a different kind of flan. This one makes use of a pastry shell with an open top filled with custard and often mixed with nuts or fruit. This is the flan that is often mentioned in the literature of England and gets high marks in Brian Jacques's Redwall series. The characters there make and "scoff" several flans in every volume of delightful adventure.

Some of us over here also call quiche "flan"

So it was probably a "Cheese, Egg, and Dan Flan" and maybe a "Broccoli, Egg, Tomato, and Gran Flan"
