Thought I'd miss it this a.m. Just about to sign off.
Today's Question(s): The recipe for a "Chicago Dog" is well known to be etched in stone, with no ketchup. Ever! What always/never goes on your hot dog? I like a good Chicago dog with a slice of pickle.
I like (not nec all at the same time) mustard, saurkraut, yes ketchup , relish - dill preferred - hot dog relish okay - sweet relish tolerated, bananas - just kidding.
Just for Fun: In honor of Today's Word, what is your favorite mondegreen? Or, what mondegreen of your own are you willing to 'fess up to? Kind of like misunderstood lyrics.
Example: Carly Simon, You're so Vain
Lyric: I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee
Heard as: I had some cream; there were grounds in my coffee
Bonus Question: Do you own any Christmas albums? If so, what singers/bands Christmas albums do you have? I think we have a Sinatra one knocking around somewhere.
My parents had a few oldies, but one of my brothers has the collection now.
Today's Question(s): The recipe for a "Chicago Dog" is well known to be etched in stone, with no ketchup. Ever! What always/never goes on your hot dog? Unless the hot dog is made using wild game, there is little chance of me eating a hot dog. I do like Brats, sausage dogs and a few others. If I have my way the only thing added will be onions and cheese. Do not attempt to put ketchup, mustard or relish on my dog.
If you don't eat hot dogs, what recipe do you have that is etched in stone? I do not have any recipes that are etched in stone. Once in a while it is good to change a recipe.
Just for Fun: In honor of Today's Word, what is your favorite mondegreen? Or, what mondegreen of your own are you willing to 'fess up to? You do know I am posting this way before the crack of noon. Most of my brain cells are still fast asleep. What does this have to do with a mondegreen? Not much. However since I have already come up with an excuse for not correctly answering this question I will go onto the next question.
Bonus Question: Do you own any Christmas albums? Not a one
If so, what singers/bands Christmas albums do you have? I do not have any albums from any singer/band you can think of.
