If I have mashed potatoes, it's an almost sure bet that I'll mix *something* with them. Ideally, corn.
I form the mashed potatoes into a volcano, with corn at the base representing the villagers. Then, the gravy eruption comes....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now you have me wanting a Bird's Nest (mashed potatoes with peas in the middle - gravy optional). Mmmmm.

Do you like to mix food, or do you eat all your items separately?
I'm not a mixer. Unless the food comes already mixed, like in salad form. As a kid, I used to eat the things I liked least first because I wanted to save the yummy thing for last, to get me through the yuck. So I would not mix, eat by category from least liked to most. I'm more flexible about eating patterns by now.

ahhhhhhhhhhhh, Robin! I'm sorry. NOT what you want to be dealing with when you still have the new house smell going! (or, ever, really, but especially at the get-go.)

Hmm, my craving for seaweed salad lasted for exactly one bite of same. Guess it's a good thing I'm not overpoweringly hungry today.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Totally a mixer.
Thanks for the Craig Kilborn info. I told my friend the Buffistas would know...

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Do you like to mix food, or do you eat all your items separately?
No mixing! I even used to look askance at things like chili or curry. Casseroles/hot dish are still on the no-fly list for me.
However, I love having a lot of different things on my plate - I just eat them separately.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Casseroles/hot dish are still on the no-fly list for me.
Really? I love dishes where the entire raison d'etre is mixing. I had a KFC bowl for lunch (chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, cheese, gravy), which is what triggered the question.

There's some wierd egg noodle beef tomato soup corn cheese thing I have from my grandmother's recipe book. It sounds like what would be in the garbage after a meal at my mom's, but damn is it yum!

OMG, have you guys heard this story about the 13-year-old girl who committed suicide after being bullied by neighbors disguised as a teenaged boy on myspace? Awful awful story. [link]
