@CuteAdorableCat I think my cat has a foot fetish. He likes to smell my feet, my dirty socks, my shoes... to be fair, my feet don't sweat so they don't really smell much either, but still.

@sheilatebra I once had a woman make me go over every single item on a Sunday brunch in detail to make ABSOLUTELY SURE there was no gluten because she was a celiac and could die. Next time I went out to check on the buffet, I see the woman walk by with a plate heaping full of pasta salad.

A woman made a full scene about her “severe, life-threatening” gluten allergy. Had me run to the kitchen 3 times.
Sent her salad back because a crouton touched the rim. We sanitized, remade, reassured. We accommodated everything.
An hour later, I ask if anyone wants dessert. She orders the tiramisu.
I froze, "Ma'am, that's entirely sponge cake, it’s full of gluten!"
She waves her hand. “Oh, a little’s fine. I’m just trying to reduce bloating.”
I swear my chef's soul clocked out mid-shift.
At that point, I just smiled and said, 'Oh, I'm so sorry, but since you declared a life-threatening allergy, it's a massive liability for the restaurant to serve you the tiramisu. Your safety is our top priority!'
The look on her face was better than any tip.

@Thebiglade All through lock down. Unless you count the mice that showed up every spring and fall.

@theamelia__ Sell bitcoin 2025.
Hopefully that will be enough of a hint to buy it when it was worthless.

@fasc1nate I've actually made this once. The sweetness of the baked onion and saltiness of the peanut butter went well together. Reminded me of a bland Thai peanut sauce stir fry. A little garlic, chili paste, black pepper, and cilantro in the filling and it would have been pretty good.

During the Depression, onions were a common and easily grown and stored vegetable. So, they were readily available and, most importantly, free.
Meanwhile, peanut butter was also inexpensive. So, the Bureau of Home Economics devised the recipe for peanut butter-stuffed onions as an easy way for American homemakers to feed their families.
The recipe for this curious dish was published in many 1930s newspapers and magazines. It eventually found its way onto American dining tables as a healthy, tasty, simple, and low-cost meal that could be served any time of the day.
The mishmash consisted of baked onions with peanut butter filling mixed with stale bread crumbs. These ingredients came together and created a distasteful and disliked dish that people only ate to fill their hungry stomachs.

@ShouldHaveCat I dunno but it would start with "Mister" and he would always be addressed as "Sir"

@reveriekeona Insulated trays with holes in the bottom. The water will freeze from top to bottom forcing impurities out the holes in the bottom leaving clear ice. Normal ice cube trays freeze from the outside in forcing all impurities to the center.

@AnthonyLaFauci That is how it has been pronounced in my head for at least the last 20 years.
