> [@](#): > > The top of your head on toast? Whaaa? Yes, I wear toast on my head. I strap it on, bonnet-style and parade the streets. Everyone claps. > [@](#): > > And what’s “Gentleman’s Relish”? I can make toast, but I’m too crushingly lazy to do a Google search. [Gentleman’s relish](http://www.davenporthouse.com/dphouse/patpepgenrel.html) (AKA Patum peperium) is a paste\* made from anchovies, butter, herbs and spices. It’s very salty but it’s gorgeous. The _other_ gentleman’s relish… well, if you put it on toast you’d the bread would go all soggy. And it would probably take all of the fun out of it if you’re trying to time the _spreading_ with the cooking of fresh toast. Not to mention the dangers of emitting liquids near electric toasters. No, best to stick with the anchovies. > [@](#): > > And why would you slap Marge with toast? Or slap your toast with Marge? What did she do to you? Does she really deserve such treatment? I slapped Marge with toast because she was trying to take away my toast bonnet. Fran \*Which, my etymology-loving friend, is where the word pate (the spread made of interesting parts of chickens and pigs, not my head) is made from. The ^ mark that should go over the a in pate, like so: pâté, usually means that there’s a missing/elided S. Hence paste. Same thing as in château/castle. And here ends our lesson for today. Stop chewing gum. ---

Oh, yes, it’s really an excellent [CD burning utility for the Macintosh](http://www.roxio.com/en/products/cdrmac.jhtml). What? Oh, this is all just talk about the subtle art of burning bread? Um, set it to 3/4 dark, light coat of butter, then generously sprinkle with a cinnamon/sugar mix. Close as I get to rocket science.

Heywood Banks rules! I have taught myself the drum beat to his song and I jam to it in my car all of the time…does that make me pathetic? ---

French toast, **Lsura**? Yeah, I can do [that](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=86252) too. **Puddin’** , on the strengths of your last post, I would make you a Special Friend. But since you already are, I send you a cyber-kiss (Mmmm-wah!), as long as you haven’t had any of the Gentleman’s Relish stuff lately. Although, if you put _that_ in your mouth, **Alex: mark"B"** is one lucky lad. **scout** , how can you eat brown sugar? Don’t you know it has molasses in it? The poor little moles with their butts in slings, all for your breakfast enjoyment… (And have you tried mixing a little cinnamon in with the brown sugar? Mmm-mm good!) Has anyone seen **babekitty**? That would have _all_ my Special Friends all in one thread. (See, I noticed you were in here too, **Snickers**.) -Rue. ---

I had a hot plate in my dorm room - also considered a fire hazard - and I never caught on fire or got caught. They always announced the fire hazard inspection days. \*\* Not to worry…just request a jury trial should anything untoward transpire. There isn’t a jury in the land that could find fault with your need for warm buttery toast! ---
