Today’s Question:
Have you reheated leftover food in an oven, on a stovetop, or another method/appliance that was *not* a microwave? Yes; many times. Certain foods are much better when heated by means other than microwaving. Pizza is a great example. If you reheat it in a heavy skillet it comes out with a crispy crust, just as it was when it first came out of the oven.
How did it turn out? When I heat pizza in a skillet, it comes out perfect every time.

Extra Credit:
Have you given a suggestion/recommendation of a business or service provider to someone posting online (that had asked commenters for name of a company or person you had positive experience with)? Yes. We're not supposed to advertise businesses here on C-D, but I've recommended some via DM to people who asked. I've made recommendations several times on my local Nextdoor.com website. Neighbors frequently ask for business recommendations or ask for the name of a favorite handyman or painter or a kid who will cut grass, rake leaves, etc.
(For example, a person might write on a forum, “does anyone know of a good restaurant/doctor/landscaper in this town/city/neighborhood ”)

Bonus:
If applicable...do you more often buy-or sell (redeem)-a roll/sleeve of coins (at bank, customer service desk, or from a machine)? The only time I've ever had a roll of coins in hand was when I worked as a cashier at retail jobs during breaks from college. That was 45+ years ago.
Which denomination/type of coins (pennies, quarters, etc.)? All denominations.

Just for Fun:
Have you bought something (via mail order/online) that cost as much (or more) in shipping charges than the price of the item itself? Nope. A couple of times I paid more than I wanted to for shipping, but they were unique gifts for my boyfriend from companies which did not have sales or give breaks on shipping and handling fees.

Today’s Word:
hagiography /ˌhaɡēˈäɡrəfē,ˌhāɡēˈäɡrəfē/ (n.): Writings about historic religious leaders/founders of a movement (saints, nuns, icons, etc.).
In modern times, has come to be defined more broadly as any overly flattering, reverential, and uncritical biography. Interesting word.

Today Is:
Eat What You Want Day Nom nom nom.
-this week is-
National Etiquette Week
Brain Injury Awareness Week
National Stuttering Awareness Week


Super cool maze, cloven! Thanks for the questions as well. Have a good week, everyone.

Fine. I don't own a microwave.

I did, but I'm not sure that was a good idea. Whenever I gave a suggestion or recommendation to someone (online or offline) they would complain afterwards. So, maybe I should keep all my experiences to myself...

No, but I did buy things that weren't really as advertised...
