Has fry sauce escaped the environs of Utah? Most non-fry-sauce people think it's just thousand island dressing or Heinz-57-and-mayo, but it's not.

I don't know any of those things! Unless a hard roll is just a hard roll.

Our weird bread is a bulkie roll.

When I was just in Otter Lake we wolfed down Salt Potatoes. My visiting friends from the city had never heard of them. I thought they were consumed in a wider area. I do so love salt potatoes.

I think a hard roll is a bulkie roll! But if you have your hamburger on a hard roll, the meat hot sauce does not make it soggy! [link]

I am hungry now....

I have never heard of fry sauce, although if it a Mormon thing, it seems like it would make it back here (we are next to Palmyra, the birthplace of Mormonism that has the Hill Cumorah pageant)

I met up with an old friend today who is in town for a month and learned she has a brain tumor - had a tennis ball sized mass removed from her left frontal lobe in late 2012, and more surgery and radiation in March 2014, and is looking at a median survival time of 5 years, although you wouldn't know anything was wrong looking at or talking to her right now. The very uncertainty of it must be so disorienting. She doesn't have kids, but she's an academic and so is looking at things like tenure review in 2-3 years and needing to get a book out - but what if?

Flea, that is horrible.

that is horrible.

Wow, flea. My friend's mom was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor 20-30 years ago and is still alive and pretty much unimpaired, much to her and her doctors' surprise. Uncertainty is right.

My car and Pile-o-Mulch can coexist on my driveway without blocking the sidewalk, so that's good.

Oh man, flea, that's terrible.

Wikipedia says bulkie rolls are not hard rolls, FWIW.
