This I know is true:

You know you have lived in California too long when you go out to dinner and:
* ask to have no croutons in the french onion soup
* ask them to serve the salad dressing on the side
* ask them to skip the white bread and go for a double order of brown bread for the cheese platter
* leave the blue cheese alone but polish of the goat cheese
* ask if the sauvignon blanc is organic and when not, seriously consider sticking to tap water instead
