Waiter, Taste the Soup!

In honor of my father-in-law making aliyah yesterday (mazel tov!), we went out to eat at Chummus Eliyahu, which serves all sorts of fresh (warm!) chummus and Israeli salad and yummy pita. (All of which sound like they should just be appetizers, but we leave that restaurant stuffed every time.)

I prefer dipping my pita into the various salads, but BSM decided (quite reasonably, really), to turn his pita into a sandwich. So he tore off the top, then asked us how he should get the chummus and salad into the pita. All I could think was, "Seriously???" especially when BSM repeated his question multiple times. Luckily, Husbinator had the patience to outline the steps of How To Insert Food Into A Perfectly-Opened Pita multiple times, and I did not have to get involved.

The final (successful!) round of instructuions went as follows:

Husbinator: Use your fork to scoop up your chummus and salad and put them into your pita.
BSM: Where's my fork?

No, we have never told him that joke.
