The Squire and I went out for breakfast after church this morning. IHOP has a special 55+ menu, and we always order the same thing – the Rise and Shine breakfast. This comes with hash browns, two eggs, fixed as you wish, either bacon or sausage, and bread.
I requested my eggs over easy, an English muffin, and turkey sausage. When the waitress turned to The Squire, he told her he’d have the same. As she turned to the kitchen, he stopped her. “Could I have my eggs scrambled? And I’d prefer bacon instead of sausage. And oh! Could I have whole wheat toast?”
After the bewildered waitress went back to place the order, I asked him what part of “I’ll have the same” was he talking about. “Different eggs, different meat selection, different bread choice. The only thing that you didn’t change was the hash browns!”
“Well, they were almost the same.”
Did you hear me roll my eyes?
