In line to give sandwich order and Jen says Can you get me a BLT on a bagel I will hold our seats.
Wait my turn.
I'll have a tuna on rye, two turkey specials one no mayo, a quinoa and black bean bowl and a BLT on a bagel.
I'm sorry we don't have BLTs on bagels.
Do you have BLTs?
Yes.
Do you have bagels?
Yes.
(Pause meaningfully, hoping server will connect the dots herself. No such luck.)
Turn to 14 year old son, G, and ask him to tell Jen that we can not fulfill order because apparently there are no BLTs on bagels at this fine establishment.
Now Jen is coming toward me and G is holding table.
Woman behind counter grins widely at Jen as though she is her long lost second cousin once removed.
Can I get the usual for you today? A BLT on bagel?
Jen looks at me like Why Was This a Problem.
I look at the woman behind counter like You Just Said No to Me.
You just told me you couldn't do a BLT on a bagel. I say to her.
Well, she says looking at Jen. You didn't tell me it was for her.

1. Was she unauthorized to do a bagel BLT on religious grounds? Like a cheeseburger on challah? Or a shrimp stuffed matzo ball?
