I had to go looking for the story behind the cabbage-heads painting. *g* The short version is that people who didn't like their heads went to Eekloo, in Flanders. The baker would make them a new head in his magic over. Then his assitance would cut off their own heads, staunch the blood flow with a cabbage, and the new head would be attached with he help of "wondercream."

*snicker* I might have to look up a few of these.
