title: Write strings/text and pandas dataframe to excel
body: <p>I'd like to save some text and a dataframe to an excel file like that:
  <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/nS9DT.png" rel="noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/nS9DT.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>Thus, I've got the following variables:</p>
  
  <pre><code>text1 = "some text here"
  text2 = "other text here"
  df = pd.DataFrame({"a": [1,2,3,4,5], "b": [6,7,8,9,10], "c": [11,12,13,14,15]})
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As I've figured out there is the possibility to use the xlsxwriter to do this which means that I basically have to iterate over the whole dataframe to write each entry to a different cell in the excel workbook. This is quite cumbersome.</p>
  
  <p>So, I thought there must an easier way to do this; something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>writer = pd.ExcelWriter("test.xlsx", engine="xlsxwriter")
  writer.write(text1, startrow=0, startcol=0)
  writer.write(text1, startrow=1, startcol=0)
  df.to_excel(writer, startrow=4, startcol=0)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there an easier way?</p>
