was younger she noticed one of her friends at a picnic putting catsup on her hot dog. This daughter from here on out will be known as The Wee One. The Wee One was appalled. She wondered rather loudly what kind of lousy family would allow their poor children to do something as gross as putting catsup on hot dogs. It was after this bit of an embarassing moment we knew we had to teach The Wee One the hot dog principle. Here is how the principle works:

You are sooo right about the training thing. But becasue of the Rain... I am seeing that training thing disappear.
There are SOME people that like hotdogs with MUSTARD and Catsoup (or is it Katsup)?
Oh no another controversy!
Me
Oh, by the way THIS... with onions. Now you got me hungry for a hot dog.
Carole, sometimes the dog reigns. Thanks for the comment.
Tracy, when our kids were growing up and needed to be reminded of the principle we would say, "hot dog" and they would respond with something like, "yeah, I know catsup is OK."
Craig, I see you have staged your hot dog to be simple and sell "at the high end of it's market valuation in a short period of time." You may need to check with Herb Hamilton a Realtor from Portland, Oregon (see above) to see if you can help him with his hot dog staging. He surely needs to get rid of some of the clutter.
wow, love the analogy! What does that say about me? I actually do like Catsup AND mustard - and have taken bits and pieces from a few different trainers. Go Figure! LOL
Alyse you must be a bit like your's truly. But no catsup on my dogs please.
James, Thanks for the star! Glad to see you got the cookies that I, being the good girl I am, sent you as opposed to some who never seem to be able to get cookies sent like they promised. Or did I get that wrong and you were supposed to recieve a bunny cake? Can't remember. Sue is my friend and no matter how much you Argue she will stay that way.
Heretofor, this shall be known as Root's Oscar Meyer Staging Principle.
James, don't Argue with me or I'll SUE YA!! :>)
Now Lori that has got to be one fantastic burger if ketchup isn't allowed. I'd like to try it. Who knows maybe I'll get back up there some time.
Great analogy! Trainings for the DOGS! All kidding aside, education is always welcomed but not always the best.
As a native Nu Yawker I love hot dogs...the other red meat. Has to have both mustard, ketchup and onions!!
Janice, Yeah, but only dureen banken ours frum niyen ta six. Right?
I had no idea this would be a vehicle (the hot dog blog) for finding out so much about the various folks here in the Rain. It has been fun learning about people's taste or lack thereof. Did you here me Paul?
Yvonne~ what a fun post and a great analogy!
Where does that leave me though, having grown up in the South and putting MAYO on my dogs (though I don't anymore)??
Looks like I'm in a school of my own.
Wait one second now. Jessica you are not alone. I always have and still do have mayo on my hot dog plus chili, cheese, of course catsup and mustard are depending on my mood of the day.
Don't worry that we were schooled a little differently. If we are taught to eat hot dogs a certain way, and we are still eating years later, it must have been good training.
Had one tonight! That was good!
Yvonne, great analogy!
Leslie
"I would have a tagline but Yvonne would laugh at me" :.)
Mayo. Hummm, I'm thinking you may need to check with my Uncle Ken who hails from Oklahoma. He uses Miracle Whip but he calls it Murkle Whup. So both Jessica and Leslie you have added another problem for the Hot Dog Principle -- what to do with those folks who simply insist on making some of us look away as you load your dog.
Now, Leslie it seems to me that a good tag line for you would be, "First Impressions Count, Let Us Make It." Or maybe someone allready has that one. You?
Know what Jessica? We are all in a school of our own. It is called Life. All tests count.
Leslie~ I'm glad I'm not the only one with the mayo/hot dog combo!
Yvonne~ Growing up, when I would visit my cousins on my mom's side back in Mass as a kid they would poke some serious fun at me for my dog topping choices! I think I put my cousin Jimmy off his appetite for a week after he saw me loading the Mayo on!
Yvonne, All joking aside. I really like that tagline. Fits me to a T. Thank you
I searched it on the internet but nothing came up. So I Leslie Godbold do here by claim this my tagline.
Thanks Yvonne
Leslie
"First Impressions Count, Let Us Make It."
Leslie, Something very much like that tagline can be found here. Hum, what do you know?
Jessica, Yep some cousins just don't get it.
Shell, Thanks for the comment. That is my side of the story
Yvonne, You are just so smart and the person who wrote the website that you linked is a genius. Don't you think ?
Sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees!
