How do you butter your bread with a stick?
Do you use chopsticks?

When in the Navy, (CB's) and we hit Okie.........
some of the natives that I went out to dinner with would show
and teach me the art of using chop sticks.
Being on the Island almost six months gave me lots of time to
get better at being able to feed myself, without starving.
I actually got to where I could pick up just ONE single grain of rice off my plate.
When we were getting close to shipping out, one of the young ladies
gave me a box that had a set of blood red chop sticks with square ends, tapered round ends and was inlaid with mother of pearl in the handles.
Now those were the quality sticks.......
not like the "Pull-apart" cheapo that come from the fast food places, here in the states.
Once you "Lock it in", eating with sticks can be fun....

I was at the hospital the other day with my daughter.I went to the cafeteria and order a Japanese dish and pick up the chopsticks,the cashier said forks spoons and knives were over to the side on the counter..I said I got what I need. She came over later and said you surprised me. I learned to use them when I was in Vietnam.
