Who knew? I've been one all my life!

A Sinkie, that is....


THE INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF PEOPLE
WHO DINE OVER THE KITCHEN SINK

Sinkie Quickie FAQ

Hungry?

No time to cook?

No time to eat?

Don't like to clean up?

Become a SINKIE!

Delicious! Nutritious! No Dishes!

SINKIES know the difference between fast food
and REALLY fast food.

SINKIES prefer refrigeratorlight to candlelight.

Eating and snacking over the kitchen sink.
Millions of people around the world have been enjoying this casual dining style for many years.

Their casual dining style can also include standing in front of their open refrigerators, rummaging around the leftovers, taking inventory of the contents.

Drinking milk straight from the carton.

Eating on the run.

Grabbing a jelly doughnut, while racing out the door in the morning, late for work.

Dashboard dining in the car.

Having a desk lunch of M&Ms and Diet Pepsi from the vending machines in the break room.

IN OTHER WORDS, IF IT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH HAVING A QUICK BITE, IT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH BEING A SINKIE.

No dress code, reservations, tipping, annoying table conversation; no "soup or salad" decision (have both if you like), no trying to catch the waiter's eye, no deciding whether to use the everyday dishes or the good stuff, no having to endure the waitress calling you "Hon" or "Dearie."

In the interest of full disclosure, I must admit to never drinking milk straight from the carton, (in fact, I am repulsed by the idea,) and to liking what Himself refers to as "Hi, Hon'" restaurants.
