Woman Denied Hot Dog, Suspects Race is Factor

Ok so there is this perfectly lovely woman that operates a hot dog stand outside our work. She is a very nice woman and mans her stand even on the coldest/rainiest of days. There's just one problem. She loves my friend Mary. They share a bond over a common language spoken that makes this woman feel very close to my friend. One of the ways she shows this admiration is by preparing Mary's food first, regardless of whether she orders it first. Another is by supplying the occasional unspoken discount to my friend.

Mind you, the food is very cheap so it is not by any means a big deal but c'mon! Is this my first hate crime? I guess there was that one time when I was walking with my friend down the street who is of Indian descent and people kept smiling and pointing at us and I had no idea why until he told me it's because we were in Minnesota and people thought we were an interracial couple. But that's not really a crime.

Now using your hot dog supplying powers to play favorites...that's something to think about.
