“Hey, are you going out? I need a birthday party flavor.”
I blinked. Huh? “Don’t you mean favor? Flavors are something you taste.” I gave her a confused look.
She laughed. “Wait. What did I say?” She flapped her hand impatiently. “Never mind, we’re running out of time, Ms. Grammar police.”
I bristled. “I’m not the grammar police, but it’s important to use the right word whenever …”
She interrupted. “Look. I don’t have time for this. So. This is my ideal …”
I cringed. “You mean idea,” I offered.
She huffed. “WHY are we friends again?”
That’s a good question, I thought.

I know flavor…favor…because favor is what we always hear….but I came late to this birthday flavor as it was, and in a rush kind of just skipped the flavor or favor thing anyway! That’s what makes this so much fun…whatever we want right!
I am trying to comment on your 5k and I can’t see the comment area. Well darn…
@ Judie: LOL!!

There was a guy who worked for Rod’s company in the warehouse in Memphis who could butcher the English language better than anyone on earth. He was telling the guys one day about his daughter who had just given birth to her first child. The baby was very late, and the daughter had gotten so big that, according to the guy, “they had to seduce her!!”
I’m laughing because I recall asking someone to do a flavor for me in the past! Oh, those slip-ups!
haha…that’s hilarious. Grate spin on the prompt! 😉
Yes. I’m one of those annoying people who will correct you if you use the wrong word for something … I can’t help it. I come from a long line of grammar squads.
