Father was in hospital overnight on Monday, so I got about 4 hours of sleep that night.
So, I had to treat myself. Went to A&W. Drive-thru only - of course. 
Here's what interesting, though:
I thought I had ordered a Chubby Chicken Burger. When I got it home, I saw there was tomato on it. I thought it was strange because historically, the Chubby Chicken only had lettuce and mayo on it.
I start into eating it, and thought it was a little hot. I attributed it to the fact that it is a hot sandwich.
I think they gave me a CHIPOTLE Chicken Burger!
I mean, I do like spicy, but not THAT spicy.
Cleared up my nasal passages - that's for sure. Also cleared up another passage....one I don't want to mention, but one can guess WHICH one.
Joker's Wilde Hope your dad is okay
Yes. He is doing very well. Thank you for asking!

Agree 100%. I dislike mayonnaise, but MW I can deal with. When I was dating the gentleman who eventually became my husband, we discovered a... difference between us that threatened to blight our love. Was it religious differences? Well, that was an issue, but we found ways to cope. A racial or ethnic difference? No. We're both of British Isles/Irish stock (but even had we come of different races, we are both broadminded and mature enough to have coped with that). None of the usual divergences threatened to sunder our relationship. It was this: He preferred {choke} mayonnaise, while I preferred (and still prefer) Miracle Whip. But, gamely refusing to let this grave issue come between us, we negotiated, prayed, underwent counseling. And eventually we compromised: Hubby would use mayonnaise when he made tartar sauce, and I would use Miracle Whip when I made tuna salad. And now we have a jar of each condiment side-by-side on the inside-the-door shelves of our refrigerator. Peace and harmony restored!!!    Note: we live west of the Rockies, so that all Hellmann's products are packaged and marketed as "Best Foods".

ellynmacg I'm with you on this. Miracle Whip over mayonnaise any day. You mentioned tuna salad. Have you ever had tuna or chicken salad on croissants? If not you should try it. Outstanding! I make both with Miracle Whip.

Miracle Whip?  Hellman's all the way, or make your own!

Catman often wonders why Hellman's never went with the slogan Hellman's Just for the Hell of It.

Did not feel like cooking so I went to Subway and got this. It was great!  Just a little while ago I went to Kroger's to get some Breyers pecan butter ice cream but they did not have that flavor. Kroger's had two for 5 dollars so I got this. Going to have the caramel one in a while.   |

wheat toast with crushed avocado and garlic. absolute bliss. That sounds nice simple and tasty nora. I don't do garlic often unless in cooking. Avo and Vegemite on toast is to die for.

The only creamy dressing I buy is Heinz Salad Cream which is made in NZ. It has a nice mild to moderate sharp flavor. Thanks for the reminder, I need to get some more.

ellynmacg I'm with you on this. Miracle Whip over mayonnaise any day. You mentioned tuna salad. Have you ever had tuna or chicken salad on croissants? If not you should try it. Outstanding! I make both with Miracle Whip. I've had both kinds of salad on croissants in one restaurant or another, but I suspect they used...well, you know... mayonnaise. But they were still pretty good. When the stars are properly aligned--i.e., I feel like getting off my lazy tush and actually fixing something--I like to make the following salad (I'm not going to attempt to use exact measurements). Depending on how many servings you want, take one or two 5-5 1/2 oz cans of chunk-style tuna (I prefer light, but albacore is good, too) packed in water. Drain off the water and dump the tuna in a medium-size bowl. Dice one or two small to medium apples and two medium-length celery stalks and use a large spoon or fork to mix them with the tuna. Blend in Miracle Whip to taste--I think I generally use about two tablespoons. Chill (if possible, an hour or more) and serve. While I don't usually use this salad as sandwich filling, I like to have it with toast on the side--pumpernickel, rye, or sourdough being my favorites. NOTE: although I recommend chilling the salad for "an hour or more", often my family has been too hungry to wait that long.  I realize this combination of tuna, apples, and celery may sound a bit odd, but every time I've taken it to a potluck, there was never a scrap left. It's a refreshing choice during hot weather. ========= Jokers_Wilde, it's been a few days, so I wondered how your father was doing.
