found it... mostly recipes for apple strudle! :p and an afterword by rudolf hess

i leave behind an ^apple strudel^

[Bowyn Aerrow]

Apple strudel has got to be better than whatever the duck is secreting.

Secrete and secret have way different meanings... Perhaps if I leave behind a dictionary it will become clear?

[trialbyerror]

Well, I didn't know what a jack-O-lantern is or was, so I popped off to Wikie and got the skinny there, before I accepted or rejected this wonderful "gift"

Seems Bow wants to pass on a royal bummer as a gift... Let's see why

From aunty Wiki

The Legend of "Stingy Jack"
People have been making jack-o'-lanterns at Halloween for centuries. The practice originated from an Irish myth about a man nicknamed "Stingy Jack." According to the story, Stingy Jack invited the Devil to have a drink with him. True to his name, Stingy Jack didn't want to pay for his drink, so he convinced the Devil to turn himself into a coin that Jack could use to buy their drinks. Once the Devil did so, Jack decided to keep the money and put it into his pocket next to a silver cross, which prevented the Devil from changing back into his original form. Jack eventually freed the Devil, under the condition that he would not bother Jack for one year and that, should Jack die, he would not claim his soul. The next year, Jack again tricked the Devil into climbing into a tree to pick a piece of fruit. While he was up in the tree, Jack carved a sign of the cross into the tree's bark so that the Devil could not come down until the Devil promised Jack not to bother him for ten more years.

Soon after, Jack died. As the legend goes, God would not allow such an unsavory figure into heaven. The Devil, upset by the trick Jack had played on him and keeping his word not to claim his soul, would not allow Jack into hell. He sent Jack off into the dark night with only a burning coal to light his way. Jack put the coal into a carved-out turnip and has been roaming the Earth with ever since. The Irish began to refer to this ghostly figure as "Jack of the Lantern," and then, simply "Jack O'Lantern."

So, now that I know, thanks for the offer but no thanks

BUSTED

Therefore (as this is, after all, the gifting game) I leave this gift behind for another to claim......
