What should we name our cooking blog?

How about: 3 sisters in the kitchen, Church food sucks, Hank sucks cause he didn't show, bitchin kitchen, this is why we're fat (Angie excluded), 3dingytingey's (not really Tingey's), cooking for the famdamily.....

In the end we came up with Serving Wenches for our cooking blog (which is only mildly offensive, yet makes us laugh).

This blog has no affiliation with anything Renaissance related. We will not be visiting any Ren fairs or even speaking of Old English from here on. We just like the word wench, it reminds us of our parents.

  1. A curious name considering its many and varied definitions, for instance:
    >> The Black Pearl pirate ship, originally named the … Wicked Wench
    >> "Wench Trouble" is the first episode of the first season of the comedic sword and sorcery series Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire.
    >> The "little wench" is a term used to describe Queen Guinevere
    >> A "beer wench" is a colloquial expression used in Australia to identify a young woman employed on a casual basis to attend cricket matches and serve beer
    >> Alternative form of henchwench … A female henchman; a henchwoman
    >> Athanasian wench … A forward girl, ready to oblige her man when he asks her
    >> Costume wench … A dresser is a theatrical stagehand who is involved with maintaining costume quality at each performance.
    ... Given the above, the term "wench" takes on an even more curious conotation when used in the context of women serving food.
    ... And takes on an even more curious context when you consider that this makes Hank a "son-of-a-wench".

    Howabout them apples?

    Just sign me off as "Father of the Wenches"
