   The Citizen Journalist is nothing if not subtle.

   But it would appear that there aren’t any spellcheckers at Camp Cupcake.

   Actually, people use both spellings, as you can see here, though I’m as surprised as you are that the Domestic Diva would use the less proper spelling.

   Of course Martha’s spelling is correct.

   Unless you mean a sauce made out of the gunk the dental hygenist scrapes off your molars.

   Perhaps I haven’t mentioned before how much I enjoy people making spelling corrections here in the comments and not through email?

   Because I really do enjoy it. It’s like inviting people over to my house for supper and having them correct the tomato sauce in front of everyone.

   Please.  MORE!

   Well, I wasn’t gonna say anything, but it’s “hygienist”.

   Sorry, Jeff, but I think you’re pushing it a bit far. It’s one thing to pick on the mentally-handicapped but to make them salivate is just too much.

   What Jeff was saying was that the sauce is more tart than … something else.

   (Sorry, I tried.)

    If you look at the Google search it says – Did you mean Tartar sauce?

    Tarter? The only other alt spelling I’ve seen is “tartre”, as in steak tartre.

    Oh, sure.  Make me the bad guy.  Besides, I just assumed it was a typo. You do believe me, don’t you?

    Okay. Well. That knocks fish sandwiches right off the menu. I think that OW should describe his sausage and mustard and screw up a food for the guys is what I think. Or am I reading too much into this?

    Drumwaster – Right-o. It was just a dental gloss.

    Daniel: Tartre is the French word for the white stuff they scrape off your teeth. The raw ground beef dish is tartare. Can we stop now?

    I forgot to throw in the “a”. 

    The french may spell it “tartre”, but here in the good ol’ US of A, we spell it “tartar”. Check out your toothpaste tube.

    Everyone here on this thread is getting waxed. Close the comments, please! Although feel free to take a final parting shot at me, I certainly deserve it.

    I know you’ll be waiting there on the other side.

    Don’t be dissin’ my Filet-O-Fish, man – I live for those things.

    Well, I did when I was six. 

    Heh, Turing word – result
