Maybe you already knew this...maybe everyone in the world but me knows this, but apparently you never mix buffalo chicken with a Caeser salad. You might be saying to yourself, "what brings this up?" Well, I'll tell you. I decided that I would eat a little lighter tonight...I would order a salad on my way home because making a salad at home when you get home at 7pm is a pain in the ass. So Katharine called up our neighborhood roast beef place and ordered off of their menu: A Buffalo Chicken Caeser Salad...right off the menu.

When I arrived to pick up this menu oddity, the people at the counter read me the order...part of that order was Buffalo Chicken over Tossed. Uhm...wait. It's supposed to be a Buffalo Chicken over Caeser. They all paused and stared at me. Oh. Yeah? Caeser? With Buffalo Chicken? Do you want bleu cheese dressing? No...it's a Caeser salad...doesn't that tell you what kind of dressing I want? Really? You want Buffalo Chicken with Caeser dressing.
Was I missing something? I mean, it's on the f*cking menu! Maybe nobody has ever ordered it before, but there it is in black and white on the menu. So I'm a freak, and I want Buffalo Chicken with Caeser dressing! Give me what I ordered!

And then of course, I started to doubt myself...was this a bad decision? They whipped up a Caeser salad and handed over all the food. I thought about it all the way home. I complained to Katharine over the phone about how I felt like I was on some hidden camera show. And then I went home...opened the tossed salad with Buffalo Chicken...poured on the bleu cheese...and ate that one. Hmmm...WTF.

I feel bad - like I may have messed up when ordering, but he *did* eat the buffalo chicken with tossed salad, and liked it. So maybe it was just meant to be! PLUS he has an extra salad for lunch tomorrow. I call this a win win situation.
