Pastblast: One of our entries from our "Historic Treats" calendar from 2007, this illustration accompanying the recipe "Maids of Honor Tarts." As seen here, Marsha stands in for one of the Queen's ladies-in-waiting, wondering what she's going to serve the Queen and her court now that the King has scarfed down the goodies she had made.
Historically speaking, King Henry VIII actually did decide that "Maids of Honor" tarts were delicious - though whether he made off with an entire batch meant for his wife is historically unclear.
