Shot my wad telling it the first time, 'sPaw! Maybe one of the super-nerds that frequent these pages can locate it for us. Can you search for a word?

Caroline says the secret of White Castle "sliders" (those must be the bite-sized tasties that used to cost 5 cents each or two-bits a bag) is that they are "steamed over a bed of onions."
