You have my deepest sympathy. That would ruin my whole life, without exaggeration.

Third piece. I just ate its goldilocks perfection with strawberry rhubarb spread. In the time it took to make this quick snack I could have prepared and eaten eggs Benedict.

Piece of burnt toast

Piece of burnt toast

Second piece. Forgot I was making toast. My toaster takes like ten minutes to toast to a golden brown, so I forgot for at least fifteen minutes.

Piece of multigrain toast with mouldy patch

Piece of multigrain toast with mouldy patch

First piece. Dropped it when I took it out of the toaster. Which, normally, who cares, I’m not picky. Only it landed upside down, revealing the second, mouldy side of the bread.

I don’t know what kind of day you are having, but I’m on my third try to make a piece of toast

Trump tariffs, corporations cower During the Biden administration, corporate executives regularly expressed their displeasure with policies they opposed.

1. We contacted the 100 largest American companies and asked a simple question:

Do you support the tariffs announced by President Trump on April 2?

These are tariffs that have already destroyed trillions of shareholder value

NOT ONE COMPANY WOULD ANSWER THE QUESTION

Massive sandwich on homemade focaccia with Genoa salami, mortadella, provolone, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, balsamic glaze and an olive oil drizzle on a cutting board with tiny tomatoes and a two knives (because it’s a massive sandwich).

Massive sandwich on homemade focaccia with Genoa salami, mortadella, provolone, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, balsamic glaze and an olive oil drizzle on a cutting board with tiny tomatoes and a two knives (because it’s a massive sandwich).

Look, if you’d made focaccia this weekend, you, too, could be having an epic sandwich for lunch today.

Unpaid work won't fly Did you know flight attendants in Canada work for an average of 35 hours for free every month?

I’ve had the 21” Heys Vantage Smart Access for 10+ yrs. Love it. Hard sided, but also opens like a soft sider for easy packing. It’s a tetch too big for the smallest regional airline carryon. But I mostly check because I think carryon is anti-socialβ€”FAs are unpaid throughout unpaidworkwontfly.ca

I’ve heard two schools of thought: buy the cheapest and discard, buy the most expensive, best warrantied and repair. It seems like mid-range is the danger zone.

I think about this a lot! I have a cousin who keeps badgering me to look into whether we could get citizenship (we can’t) and I’m like, sweet cousin, just move back to Windsor from L.A., most of your issues will be resolved.

I just lit a candle for no particular reason, and before I could even put the lighter down, the power went out. Spooky. I’ve lived here fifteen years, it’s only the second time the power has ever gone out.

Skin care! Shower! Designer pyjamas! This for the woman who just booked a middle seat in economy because paying $75 for an aisle seat rankled me.

Dunno what magical combination of podcasts I listen to, but suddenly I’m bombarded by ads for Emirates airlines exhorting me to close the door on my private suite, help myself to my personal mini bar and watch my wide screen TV. Sure, ok, I’d been looking for a way to spend a spare 20K USD.

Friend, I am having the worst possible day in a series of worst possible days, but this photo brought tears to my eyes. In a good way. Thank you.

Does that mean if we unionize them all, they'll just shut the whole operation down?
