We got in a bit too late to plan on cooking a dinner – put out submarine buns and “all the fixings”.

Usually I would make the buns up and serve them but had lots of ingredients so thought he could choose his own.

It was very interesting – he had his bun plain (til I suggested condiments). Each ingredient was set precisely on his plate e.g: Tomato slices, cheese slices, lettuce, meat, etc.

Wondering what he’d do, I just carried on making mine. He used his knife and fork and ate each item separately. In the end, he ate his bun which had only condiments on it.

When I offered a second bun, he agreed. I made it for him the usual way – no comment from either of us. It’s not a big deal but it is another “first”.
