Well, if you think of it, and you're sure it's edible, we'll make a note in the recipe!

Boretsch in German- Borago oficinalis in Latin! I'm sure it's edible, just checked. Here's a pic:

It's called borage, I've found it. I'll add a note that you could decorate the platter with borage, as well.

Hi! Hope you're feeling better...
You said that you like old songs, the naughtier the better. Do you know "Es wollt ein Meyer meyen"? Highly symbolic
N'Abend!
Dmitri Gheorgheni, Post Editor Posted Jul 14, 2005
No, I don't! Tell me, please. And what is the meaning of 'meyen'? Is it like 'to go maying'?
I'm over the worst of it, I think, still feeling shaky. Ir's so stupid - I was supposed to go to the dentist yesterday, to have a tooth pulled, but I woke up at 5 am, throwing up, so I had to put the dentist off for a week. And I'm very weak and sore right now, and can't think too clearly. That was a mean stomach bug. And I still have the dentist to look forward to...
Thanks for all the 
and sympathy.
N'Abend!

Sure! It's so lonely around here without you...
"meyen" in this case is old and means "mähen", mowing. I'll try to find the text. I have it on my computer as a .wma from my CD, but of course I can't offer to send it to you...

The great thing about these is they're perfect for mixed audiences, the kids don't get it!
N'Abend!
Dmitri Gheorgheni, Post Editor Posted Jul 14, 2005
Yes!
There are a lot of these in English, going back to at least the 16th century.
N'Abend!
Malabarista - now with added pony Posted Jul 14, 2005
Same for German, for French, for Dutch, for Spanish - they're just popular!

I'm finishing a model. A lot of stuff is due tomorrow, and I can't get it all done, having started only last week becuase of my "partner", but I'll at least have that...
N'Abend!
Dmitri Gheorgheni, Post Editor Posted Jul 14, 2005
Well, good luck with it!
I'm feeling bushed, I'll turn in now.
G'night!
