The Great (Refrigerator) Divide
I like a good hot sauce. It's not, like, my personality, but I enjoy them. There are enough different hot sauces that having a bit of a collection of them is reasonable. Cholula is a mainstay, working equally well on Mexican and egg-based dishes. Although admit Tabasco is my general go-to. The green Tabasco works particularly well on Chipotle for whatever reason.

What kind of list is unordered? I *know* you thought about the order — don’t even lie. ol { list-style-type: disc; } It’s okay. Embrace truth. Live mas.

There's a new

Working Group poll to get feedback on different names for the infamous 'Pinterest' layout. - Since it uses many of the grid-* properties, `grid` will be in the name somewhere - We don't use metaphors in CSS names, so `masonry` is not listed here

See https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/12022 for context. This poll intentionally leaves out `masonry` as an option, see https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/12022#issuecomment-34172962...

CSS `field-sizing` on a `<textarea>` is obviously awesome. But the horizontal growth using it on an `<input>` is less clearly useful to me. But check out this design pattern I cooked up. I don't hate it. Keeps the name area compact until you need to see more. Just a bit of flexbox wrapping.
