Another Actual Conversation
(Note, this is from way back at the shower for my brother's now-wife, but something made me think of it this weekend.)

Bethany - " ....... and I got a wafflemaker."

Sarah Smile - *sucks in breath* "Oooooo, are you gonna make waffles for Jesse? Do you know the procedure?"

Bethany - "There's a 'procedure'?"

Sarah Smile - "Does that surprise you?"

Bethany - *laughs* "No."

Sarah Smile - "First, make sure that the waffle maker is full. Without the edges, the syrup could run out."

Bethany - "He likes them with syrup?"

Sarah Smile - "He like 1/4 of one with syrup. See, once you've got the waffle, line it up so that the lines are parallel and perpendicular to the table edge. The syrup, butter, whipped cream and strawberries have to be served on the side. No touching. Now look at the waffle like a clock. Noon to 3 oclock have whipped cream carefully spread, then over that a layer of strawberry. No dribbling off the edge. He'll touch it up with his napkin if necessary. That is carefully cut down the lines of the waffle, down the middle of each raised part, to keep anything from running out. Now the second part, 3 to 6 o'clock, that's syrup. It has to be poured evenly. Same eating procedure, cutting down the ridges. 6 to 9 oclock is the whipped cream and strawberry again. And he doesn't eat the 9 - noon part. Ever."

Bethany - *laughing* "That sounds like Jesse."

Sarah Smile - "Don't even get me started on how he eats watermelon."
