[or-roots] Buttermilk Corner

[Cecil Houk]

I must admit that in my 66 years I have never tasted buttermilk, and I don't plan to do so in the 
future.  I did live in Portland 1956-1961, but I don't recall seeing a Buttermilk Corner store.  I 
worked in a TV repair shop for 3 years, and there are not many streets in Portland that I haven't 
driven on.

Salt on cantaloupe - Yes.  Pepper - no way.
Nothing on watermelon.
Powered sugar on grapefruit.
Why would you put anything on cottage cheese?

A-1 on filet mignon?  Well done!  My mother did this when I took her to Mr. A's (a very high class 
place here in San Diego) on her birthday about 1971.
