Other Things

S. tells me that you should not present a baguette or loaf of bread upside down. The reason???
Back in the day when they were executing people, the prisoner would not know when his execution day was.  On the day before they were to be executed they would receive their breakfast baguette upside down. They then knew the next day would be the last.
I serve the baguette upside down all of the time now.
