I have been writing a great deal in my little notebook, but the idea of typing it all into this machine is eluding me right now. Rest assured, dear ones, we'll have much to discuss as time goes on. But now, a message from our sponsor.
There is a movement afoot to pass a constitutional amendment which discriminates against gay people by making same-sex marriage an impossibility. U want more? See the October 15 entry on the other page of this journal. This letter to the editor appeared in the Honolulu Star Bulletin yesterday, and I liked it. It's a really cool analogy, I think. (btw, the author was Monica Solorio-Snow of Mililani)
A compelling interest in mayo with my fries...
As far back as I can remember, I've been eating mayonnaise with my fries. Catsup has never been my gig. I haven't seen my dipping technique on a cooking show, nor has anyone ever suggested that I should dip my fries in mayo. I just knew that it tasted yummy! My taste buds were born this way.
It hasn't been easy being a Mayo-n-Fries person. I've been surrounded by the Catsup-n-Fries crowd. Oh, sure, I've met the occasional Milk Shake Dippers. I've even met a few other Mayo-n-Fries people! Many of my friends are Catsup-n-Fries people and even my husband is a Catsup Dipper.
They dip their way...I dip my way. I'm not going to change, and neither are they. We get along by respecting each other's taste buds.
Growing up, I was teased by the other children. I was singled out for being different. They said I was "not normal," and that it was a "sin" to use mayo on my fries. I don't know how they knew about my affection for mayo. I never ate it at school or spoke about it with anyone.
Ordering mayo can be a challenge. Some burger joints don't have mayonnaise. But every burger joint and diner has a bottle of catsup on the table. It dosen't bother me in the least! I'm happy that Catsup Dippers have such convenience and acceptance.
My fear is that a group of Catsup Dippers want to ban Mayonnaise. I don't understand. Why do they care how I dip my fries? Who will they go after next? The Milk Shake Dippers? The Honey Mustard Dippers? The Thousand Island Dippers?
I still see plenty of catsup bottles on the tables. Catsup-n-Fries folks don't have to worry about the bottles going away. I have a feeling the catsup bottles will be around for a long, long time.
I'm voting "no" on Nov. 3!
