Humbled at the Queens Pub

She carefully sprinkled vinegar over her chips, opened the mayonnaise packet and squeezed it onto the plate, and did the same with the ketchup.  Then, holding the knife with her right hand and spearing a single chip with the fork in her left, she painstakingly applied equal amounts of mayonnaise and ketchup with the tip of the knife.  First one, then another, one by one until she enjoyed them all.

And to imagine that I once thought I knew how to eat chips.
