"The text I want to display is in the middle of an existing formula …"
You can *concatenate* text to a value or formula result by using the & operator or CONCATENATE() function.
F1: anyway
F2: ="It's " & (TODAY() - 3) & " " & F1 — this will show something like "It's 17-Sep anyway"
Remember to add spaces where needed, and to put all text in a formula between double quotes.
