Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hot dogs are excellent cooked in butter! But it's not necessary, really.

Because books.

I'm suddenly craving cut up hot dogs in Spaghettios.

I used to boil hot dogs, until I first tasted bratwurst and switched to grilling that instead.

Mom used to cook the dogs dry in a cast-iron skillet, but she'd also throw buttered buns in the pan, so there was some additional grease. Noms, though (as far as hot dogs are noms - I enjoy them, but only so much).

For mac & cheese I'd much rather use kielbasa or something similar than hot dogs.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

My mom put sliced up hot dogs in lentil soup. Now, I use kielbasa for a slighty more spicy yumminess.

Microwave. If I'm going to the trouble of grilling, I'm using something better.

My mom put hot dogs in split pea soup. We called it "hot dog soup."

Brenda, how do you keep them from exploding?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My mom would always cut up hot dogs, fry the pieces a little bit, and then scramble eggs with them. It might be objectively disgusting, but I love it because it was yummy kid food.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Is the term frying dependent on there being grease in the pan? It is, right? Then you hot dog friers are disgusting people, who should be heavily penalised for your willful perversions.

I embrace my perversions. They are warm and buttery.

Brenda, how do you keep them from exploding?

Not Brenda, but I poke holes in them with a fork. It lets the steam escape.
