I wonder how Padma knows about the "oven explosion of '98", or what Ed was like before it? That is fourteen years ago, so assuming she's another twenty-something, she'd have been maybe fifteen years old at the most. Was it some kind of legend locally?

I recall a mill explosion and fire back in the late 70s... I wasn't more than 5 or 6. So memory works. People remember stuff. That's how it works.
On the other hand, maybe she did her baking apprenticeship with Ed, and was there when the explosion happened.
irlurkur:
I didn't see anyone say something before but isn't that sweet-tits in the first panel?
Carl-E:
Someone did, and no, it isn't.
Also, to Skewbrow; I'm not sure of the term outside the US, but here a cafeteria is an assembly-line style restaurant, food on steam tables, get a trayful, find your seat, bus your own tray. We'd call CoD a cafe. Or to most people, just a coffee shop.
Gah, I sound snarky. Sorry...
Border Reiver:
S'alright man, its early. and the GOM need to be grumpy about something, and with all the snow, there's no one on our lawns!

Not snarky at all. On the contrary. I was uncertain about the correct term myself. And could (should) have looked it up. I will never turn down a free(?) lesson in English. Lessons containing public (good natured) humiliation are even better, because those tend to stick. IOW: you are too kind :-D
