Watch what you say

We were eating lime rice for dinner tonight, which is made with a spice called "hing" or "Asafetida" (dung of devil). It smells really, really bad, but tastes vaguely of onions when sauteed. Flannery always seems to eat unmixed pockets of it, which is a bit unpleasant. Flannery commented that those pockets tasted awful. I replied, "Yes, it's like licking someone's armpit." Which, of course, is what Collin then proceeded to do to Cayla. That boy's tongue is destined for greatness.
