But these days those are pretty common in this country. I remember when you
couldn't get them here in WA. Then I remember when I first bought them.
Every person I fed them to disliked them.

I didn't imagine anything. I saw an older lady who was making a sandwich
and she said that the first time you had one, you had to get it the way that
they made it. Or something like that. I'm not going to say that this was
the place although I know I have heard the name before.

Well, buttering corn was never a problem for me.

Poor management. Not the sandwich's fault.

Yeah, you're a real modern day inventor.

Heh. It had nothing to do with the sandwich, you're right.

Management's story is that the landlord was behaving unreasonably.
Personally, I believe this bar (which shall go unnamed) failed
to hire competent bartenders, in a locale where the bar for
bartending (so to speak) is set pretty high.

Personally, I'm fine with the wheel and the old snap mousetraps.

It seemed like an odd combination to me, before I tried them.

Yes Sometimes i have bread & butter at home mostly in breakfast !!

Ah yes, breakfast. With eggs I always have bread. Real sourdough rye,
toast if it is white, or an English muffin. Weekday mornings a couple
of days will be toast and peanut butter.

Tomorrow will be hard boiled egg (already made), nuked leftover bacon
and a slice of raisin bread.

At other meals, we rarely have bread. If we do, it will be Italian
bread when having a meal with sauce. I'd never put sliced white
bread out for a meal. That is strictly for sandwiches and occasion
toast for breakfast.

With bread, we use real butter too.

You take any opportunity to whine and complain about food.

Well *duh* everyone was too full of bread and potatoes to swill any
suds!

Probably right.


Steve

Bread in dinner never tried and never thought about it.
