The curry plate
I have a special plate that I only use for eating indian curries.

It has a deeper dish to it than my "standard" plates.

If I accidentally use it during the week I wash it and put it to the bottom of the stack so statistically I won't use it before my usual weekly curry take away.

When getting the plate out to pre-heat in the oven I sing/chant "mm curry plate, curry plate, you are my only curry plate."

When I place the order at the indian take away it goes like this:

"ring ring"

"Hello"

"Can I have my usual"

"20 mins"

No name, no drill pack. I think they know I have my curry plate ready.

haha
the bloke at the new curry house down the road offered me a lift back to the pub and gave me his mobile number so I can place orders at closing time if he's still shutting up.

How do you accidentally use a plate?
Do you sleep-eat?

Maybe he's blind,
and has no sense of touch? It's not cool to mock the afflicted, Doc.

I have a soup spoon
Or more specifically a spoon only ever used when I eat soup or stew.
Its a different shape from all my other spoons, the bowl is round as opposed to the usual oval shape, I think it may be Georgian silver.
This ritual only applies when I'm at home
Anywhere else I can eat soup or stew with any old spoon
