Last night… I was making tuna (which is what you make for dinner when you didn’t go food shopping all weekend and there is nothing else to eat). But, since I didn’t go food shopping, after opening the can, I realized I didn’t have any mayonnaise. And, since Miss Picky Sabrina only eats tuna one-way… I was stuck. Until, it occurred to me that I have neighbors! Neighbors that I know by name, that speak my same language, that even go to my church! Neighbors that I can bother for the proverbial cup of sugar!
I asked Steve to go next door and ask to borrow some mayo (since I was already in my pajamas… and, well, we aren’t that close of neighbors yet)… He argued with me for a bit
“What if they don’t have any?”
“Who doesn’t have mayonnaise? It’s a staple.”
“We don’t have mayonnaise.”
“We haaave mayonnaise, we just don’t have any right now.”
“What if they don’t have any right now?”
(Mumble mumble mumble, you’ve got to be kidding me).
Finally I agreed to call and ask first… Kimberly answered and I giggled and said “This is sort of a strange question, but could I borrow some mayonnaise?”
“Oh! of course!!”
“Great, I’ll send Steve down to get it.”
Yay for neighbors!
