Bakin' smells different in Firefox?

I'm a newbie working on my "Smells Like Bakin' " project (currently starting the responsive design section), and I noticed something that's been bugging me. My Smells Like Bakin' page looks fine in IE, but in Firefox the "contact us" link at the top wraps to the next line. Before I posted the question, I checked, and the www.smellslikebakin.com website does the same thing! So it's not just me.

My question is: Can anyone explain why this happens and, if so, how to "fix" it?

It'll be caused because the nav hasn't been given sufficient width. normalize.css only does so much, there's still slight discrepancies. If the nav elements were a little close, the container a little wider...problem would be solved.

Plus, the smellslikebakin.com site isn't responsive so there's that as well.

Hmm. Well, I could be really industrious and play with it to see if I can fix it, but at this stage of the game I think I'm far more likely to break it. ;-)
