#5 Gonna give me cheese for dessert, better have a third wine service.

Especially if leading with radish with butter and sardines. Do have to ask what Ane's face is.

Gruyere needs a good Chardonnay.

#8 Next week's headline: 200 ISIS troops trapped in Mosul. Headline the week after: All ISIS troops in Mosul eliminated (per SecDef Mattis's approach to handling ISIS)

#9 That is what I found, no recipe books or nothing. Must be a slang, like pigs in a blanket or little donkey. Maybe a gal named Ane Farcie who looked like a brussel sprout?

Ummm....is that cat with side rats? Another slang, or throwback to siege food? Pretty fancy way of saying baby peas in butter.

I am also wondering if Elephant is a type of potato or if this is a very international food selection. Antelope with truffles is on the menu so...maybe our café is in French Equitorial Africa? Could explain why Gruyere is the delicate dessert.

#10 Stuffed head of ass, even.

Mon oncle who worked at the Zoo
Once roasted a fat kangaroo,
Tenderised with a cobble
And stuffed. Formidable!
He gave me the gristle to chew.

Wasn't that Nice?
