I always loved that bit from Henry V. :)

It's a bit frustrating that if you should try to observe the leek tradition in the States, you buy them from the grocer's and they're too darned thick and fat to stick in a hatband!

The stalk-ends that would otherwise fan out so nicely are always cropped too...sigh.

(Yes, there's always daffodils, but you just can't make good soup out of them afterwards.)
