My specialty was baked potatoes with cheese melted over broccoli. I was also very good at melting cheese on bread.

In university, in a vain attempt to stave off the frosh fifteen, I used to melt fat-free cheese over broccoli, onions and cauliflower in the cafeteria microwave. That earned me few friends.

Talk of joy: there may be things better than beef stew and baked potatoes and home-made bread - there may be.

I hear that melting-pot stuff a lot, and all I can say is that we haven't melted.

Twitter is an amazing public tool with an incredible capacity for public good.
