Man, stawberry whipped yogurt does not mix with the chocolate/granola breakfast bar thingy as well as you’d think it would.
Okay, here’s a quiz for those playing at home: when I was a kid, I had a weird little… I dunno, a hang-up or a superstition or something. I flat out REFUSED to eat my dessert with the same spoon as they one I’d used to eat my actual dinner with. The idea of getting ‘food juices’ on whatever was dessert just appalled me.
How about you?
(I was thinking about this because these days I actually avoid eating certain things in the fridge (see yogurt, above) because I don’t want to dirty a spoon if it’s not for something ‘significant’.)

My husband doesn't like it when foods touch. I, on the other hand, couldn't care less. I will admit, though, that I get new flatware when I eat dessert. I'm worried that something from dinner will stick to the fork [or whatever] and then I'll be taking a forkful of tiramisu and somehow get half a mouthful of mashed potatoes. Yuck.

Ummm...
Nope.
If it is food (or what I define as food (squash is not food)) I will eat it.

Sorry Doyce, you're a freak. Time to live up to it. :)

I think you and I grew up in different houses, I don't remember getting dessert all that often - usually holidays or so long after supper that there was no chance of using the same ware. I think you hangup is either in your head or from a previous life.

Nah... remember that time when we were doing Christmas at Floy's and Bill wouldn't let me off the hook about wanting a different spoon? It was driving him nuts. He cleaned off the one I'd been using and make me pick it out of a group of 3 'clean' ones in his hand.
Somewhere in high school I stopped giving a crap about it one way or the other.

So we're mutually freaky. I did the same thing. It's still a preference, but it doesn't bother me quite as much anymore. Then again, I'm obsessive-compulsive. I still have to push down all of the bumps on a fast food drink lid. Make of that what you will.

Ohh... seperated-at-birth vibe. :)
