Oodles of Noodles - Feast Your Eyes

by Rebecca Flint Marx, Posted Jun 2nd 2009 @ 10:00AM

This eye-popping bowl of fettuccine with roasted tomato sauce is a tantalizing reminder that tomato season is nearly upon us. Brought into glorious (and most likely brief) existence by Gwendolyn at Patent and the Pantry, it's a vibrant ode to the complicated chemistry that takes place between simple ingredients, rendering them extraordinary. It's also a succinct explanation of why carbophobia tends to end in bankruptcy, both moral and financial. Above all, it's a comforting reminder that sometimes, happiness really can be found at the business end of a pasta machine.

Number 1; I am a damn good waitress as well as my colleagues. We really do care about you as a customer and want you to have a pleasant experience. Let me break this down for you all. After your generous 10%, I then am required to tip my busser 2% of your bill. However, if I want him to help me more than just bussing my table (to give you the best service), I will end up tipping him 4% of your bill. Then, I am also required to tip out 1% of your bill to the bartender. So if your bill is $100.00 and you tip me $10 measly dollars, Tecnically, you just tipped me 5%. Oh, I'm not finished. Guess what the United States government taxes me and takes out of my paycheck. (hold on to your horses) 12%!!! Right, so I basically just paid you to come eat . Your very welcome. PS I am going to school to be a dental hygienist and I am very good with faces.
