I've become quite the freqenter of Ask MetaFilter in the past couple of years. Not only is it an incredibly useful resource for finding all manners of information and answers to obscure enquiries (the tagline isn't "querying the hive mind" for nothing, after all), the questions people throw out there are often insightful, puzzling, entertaining, or inspiring.

Like today's discovery, which was an enquiry about what to pair with rosemary brownies.

I like to think of myself as a bit of a food snob, and even I haven't thought of spiking my brownies with rosemary. Not only did the question itself inspire the desire to run to the shop for ingredients, the suggested pairings--Lindeman's Cassis reduction, salted caramel ice cream, lavender whipped cream, olive oil ice cream--were enough to make me want to blow off school for the day and lock myself in the kitchen.
