A Goose Feast
September 29 is the feast day of St Michael the Archangel
and also one of the Quarter Days when summer work
ended, school started, rents and other payments became
due. and you paid your servants and gave them winter
clothes Even Shakespeare uses Michaelmas as a point of ref
erence in Henry IV (and The Merry Wives of Windsor).
Michaelmas Eve, September 28, was described as an evening
of family games and fun A tradition of eating the
Michaelmas goose is still alive in northern Europe since
geese are plump and ready to eat this time of year The goose
was usually stuffed with potatoes to cut the grease and served
with a creamy onion sauce An old saying insisted that “if you
eat goose on Michaelmas Day, you never want money all the
year round "
So many Jays olj the moon is on Michaelmas, so
many flooJs after.
its- To get relief from a nagging cough, put a dab of honey
on the back of your tongue.
EAMWISE
After cooking something
smelly, like fish, just stick a
whole, unpeeled lemon in a
300° F oven tor 15 minutes
with the door slightly open, or
slice a lemon into a pot with
boiling water for a nice fresh
scent You might want to use
some of your herbs and spices
instead of commercial sprays.
Sprinkle some cloves, nutmeg,
or ginger on the floor before
vacuuming, or put some sprigs
of fresh herbs in your oven
after you are done roasting or
cooking Put some cinnamon
sticks and cloves in boiling
water and let simmer for a few
minutes
