What kind of sauce did your husband have for his chicken tenders? It's plum something.

Just plum.
The "aux prunes" is French ... for plum.

 

[JenniferS]

I know I remember and I do appreciate you putting up with my ever present Office musings.

Keep 'em coming. I love The Office.

If we're going to talk European architecture I have to say I absolutely adore Westminster Abbey. I have got to see it one day. The history in that building is just incredible.

I actually held back a couple of times but if you give me the ok...

Yum that sounds different. I've never seen it but I will look for it at the grocery store.

But American what? American is your nationality not ethnicity.

If you want to get specific:

English, Irish German, Scottish, Dutch, Native American, French and Eastern Jewish. And that's just what I'm sure of; there could be more.

Seeing as how my family has been here for over 100 years and since I'm so mixed, I'm pretty much Caucasian American.

 

[TomP]

I feel so uncultured around all of you...

Parents: American
Grandparents: American
Great Grandparents: one Native American and the rest...American.

Same heritage here. Great Grandma was Cherokee. Maybe you and I are related!

 

[TomP]

Can you imagine what that meal would have set you back in WDW at a Table Service?

You would have to sell a kidney.

 

[TomP]

probably a kidney and a cornea.

oops....I see I replied in the same vein...after you.

I just wanted the distinction to be made between nationality and ethnicity otherwise it's a slippery slope into some people being excluded from the American club because of their ethnicity. I'm not insinuating anyone here by any means but I thought that distinction should be made. No offense meant.

Vein? Pun intended?

 

[TomP]

Thanks to Seinfeld, we all know about coldness being a vasoconstrictor.

Bein' a guy, I assure you, I knew about it LONG before it ever came up on Seinfeld...!

My Grandfather went to Tulane. As pretty as the Garden District is and as much as I love New Orleans I have no desire to move back there. It's nice to visit, but crime was one of the reasons we moved away. I miss the food though. Can't get good king cakes over here. Gosh, now I'm craving king cake. I'm gonna have to make a run down to New Orleans.

Oh...my grandmother used to make the best King Cakes....she was from NO

"Vasoconstriction" and "long" are mutually antithetical.
You can have one or the other ... not both.

ETA - Just saw the "came up". You're on a roll today, my friend.
