Cooking question! How does one go about toasting only one side of a slice of bread, anyway?
Everyone else gave my answer. Broiler.
Angel: You're lying. Gwen: I'm fibbing. It's lying, only classier.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
See, it's the first rain we've had here for a little ever, maybe seven months or something, so you're totally entitled for a completely different response than mine.
Well, true, but really I mean I'd rather be all happy like you are! I do continue to stand my opinion that I'm happy to have ever-changing weather, because it makes you appreciate stuff.

Oh, and Nilly, Welsh Rabbit is bread (toast) with a cheese/beer sauce over it. Basically. (Right?)
Edit: ...and here's a recipe that specifies using the broiler, too! [link]

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Welsh Rabbit!
Will it make you happier or sadder if I ask what exactly that is?
It's a grilled cheese sandwich with delusions of grandeur.

I've always seen it called Welsh Rarebit. And it has Worcester sauce and maybe egg, I think. I guess YWRMV.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So no bunnies are harmed in the making of a Welsh Rabbit?

I'm guessing 'broiler' is American for 'grill' then. I have learned a new thing today.
I guess so -- When we say "grill," we mean either the thing outside (gas or charcoal powered), or sometimes a pan on the stove that makes lines on the food like if you cooked it on the grill outside. When we say "broiler" we mean the part in the bottom of a gas oven or top of an electric oven that cooks with close direct heat.

I've always seen it called Welsh Rarebit.
Rarebit is a spelling that was invented because "Welsh Rabbit" is a derogatory way of saying "Those Welsh are too poor to afford real meat, so they eat cheese on toast and call it rabbit."
Kind of like "Cape Cod Turkey," which is salt fish.

Yes, although I used milk instead of beer (the recipe said I could!) mainly because I couldn't justify opening even the crappy beer we have for only a tablespoon's worth.
No bunnies whatsoever. My, that's... rather a lot of cheese sitting on top of that bread. Waiting for it to cool now.

Oh, and my toaster oven seems to be a very poor model. No broiler setting, no bagel setting.
