I could probably come up with a few of my own (I'm a sushi fanatic), but at the moment I'm still reeling from Sunday's French onion dip experiences. At the end of the service Sunday noontide, I went into the Lounge where we have Coffee Hour, and there were, on the table, what appeared to be a plate of sliced dark rye bread and a container of dip with a knife. IMO French onion. So I dipped the knife in the dip and slathered it all over a slice of the bread. And bit in. And discovered it was chocolate cake. Then they brought out the foccaccia with pesto and foccaccia with sun-dried tomatoes that the dip was intended to be used on. Then about 9pm that night, after the evening service, I was telling people about the onion-dip-on-chocolate-cake episode, and meanwhile was putting another knifeload of the same onion dip on what looked to be another slice of the sun-dried-tomato foccaccia... and then discovered (by biting into it) that this one was from a sweet dough and the dried stuff was raisins (sultanas for those of you who call them sultanas). Any others? Haruo who will not let this dissuade him from eating at church |

When I first saw a bowl of watery soup being put on the table in front of me at a Chinese restaurant, some decades ago, I tried it and discovered it tasted like disinfectant. Oh hell! That was the finger bowl not the soup! Helen |
