that door-in-door design is actually really cool because when you open that tiny compartment, you won't be letting cold air out of the entire fridge, but only out of that compartment. perfect for things that get moved in and out of the fridge often. anyway fuck corporate

I actually have a fridge with a smaller door at the front to access milk etc. I'm not sure what this says about me now! :-(

On second thought, another idea. You don't need to make a page use a layout if you don't want to, so if you just have a regular HTML file with your one-off style and no front matter, 11ty will just copy it over as-is.

That arrow works better on desktop than it does on mobile, so go view this post on desktop and get back to me

It does not work better on desktop than on mobile. You are trying to play a 2007 Facebook trick and it will not work.

But I will keep this in mind if my site has any font issues.

Fine, I guess I'm gonna need y'all to image the arrow is either pointing up or is non-existent, your choice. I haven't figured out who around here handles arrow issues unsolicited yet.

No, c'mon, I can't make Mike my banter guy, my septic-cleaning guy, AND my arrow guy. That's just asking too much of him.

I'm glad you tried and didn't hate it! Do you have any slightly less common dessert recommendations for people?

It never in this world would have occurred to me that the cake itself should be coconut flavored. Also, a wedge-shaped slice from a square-shaped cake. Interesting.

I was a little SKEPtical, you might say, that this whole thing was worth following through on, but you won me over. You did not convince me to buy this cake, though.

@June You just slice the square pizza-style, as the side flap helpfully demonstrates. Believe me, I was going to complain about the image on the front of the box at first too.

This all seems like an elaborate ruse to get Skep to update his long-neglected Links page.
