Disclaimer: Do not read if you eat bananas with a fork and knife. I am a people watcher... I could sit in a public places and be entertained for hours. Sometimes I see more than I bargained for.... but that is another story. Most of the time it is just amusing. Which brings me to my story. Last night we stopped at Barnes and Noble to get a Cape Cod travel guide. I was sitting in the Starbucks when I notice a little old man with tray with a glass of ice, a turkey sandwich and a banana. I became intriqued when he started eating his sandwich with a fork and was having difficulty. He then asked for a knife.... ok... so he ate his sandwich with a folk and knife.. no big deal, but when he began peeling his banana with a fork and knife and then started eating it with a fork and knife I became engrossed in watching. I tried not to be impolite and did not gawk but I was pretending to look out the window while secretly watching him through the reflection. I kept muttering, "pick it up and just eat it"! The banana was slipping all over the plate as he tried to poke it with the fork. Finally he grabbed the banana with his napkin but the banana got stuck to the napkin. He ate part of the banana but could not get the napkin off with his knife and fork..... He wiped his mouth and scrubbed his hands and took his tray up..... I looked at Dave and said, "What do you think, OCD"? I have honestly never seen someone eat like this, especially a banana!
