How to Tell if Someone's Not from Texas

Clue number one:  if they say things like this, it's a sure bet they ain't from around these parts:

After discovering the unlikely and delicious combination of potato chips smeared with leftover foie gras mousse (we were out of toast), I started making mental notes of the delectable combinations you could make with this ordinary ingredient. Good potato chips—cut slightly thick, fried in olive oil, and seasoned with sea salt—are easy to find most supermarkets these days, so I've found myself breaking with my rather unrealistic assumption that I should make everything myself. I buy the good potato chips instead.

Potato chips are also a perfect dessert with a sliver of fine chocolate sandwiched between them. I like them for afternoon tea.

Well, pin a rose on you, honey.
