I'd get over the spitting incident. If you think chefs all over the world don't do this to obnoxious customers you'd be sorely mistaken.

Maybe she worked in a bad restaurant kitchen once.

Yes, I agree that she is intelligent and insightful, and has been a very good housemate.

I would advise trying to separate the action from the person, if you can, as one incident does not define who she is- she made a poor decision, apologised and hasn't repeated it. She didn't think and made a silly mistake, and we have all been guilty of that at some point in our lives, especially if we have been pushed and provoked to our wit's end.
