The Feast of Fools was a Medieval holiday celebration that entailed much revelry and the election of a "Lord of Misrule", who encouraged disorder, role reversal, cross dressing, bawdy songs, wanton acts, and drinking to excess. Weee! What fun! To wash all this merry-making down, a drink from the Wassail bowl! The word 'Wassail' is an old English toast, meaning 'be thou hail' - and the punch, a mulled ale with delicious fruit, sugar and spices.
