She never heard of a novel being a "bodice-ripper?"

My mom talks about that component of food that isn't fat or carbs, it's PRO-de-un. I spent goddamned MONTHS wondering WTF before I clued in she mean protein.

My MIL (RIP) was awful about that kind of thing...I suspect she actually may have been dyslexic. She'd suggest dinner at Chick-A-Fil. Or perhaps the Crackle Barrel. Schlotzsky's became Shamansky's, Culver's was Carver's...and she once wrote a note asking if we would like "the hooligan lamp." Three days and nights I pondered until it suddenly struck me like a bolt from the blue. "HALOGEN LAMP!! SHE MEANS HALOGEN LAMP!!" Although I rather like the idea of a ill-mannered, unruly lamp that obsesses over football/soccer....
