5. If I knew You Were Coming I’d Have Baked a Cake

   My Gran always sings an oldie called ‘If I knew You Were Coming I’d Have Baked a Cake’, which I belive was sung by Gracie Fields.  I’m not sure of all the words (my Gran only remembers the chorus!) but I think this could fit in quite nicely with your theme?

   Happy ‘cooking’!
