Today I went to lunch with a few coworkers – one of whom recently had the “What do you like to put in your mouth?” discussion with me.
As we talked about meal options, she made a few comments that seemed to go hand in hand, or foot in mouth, with my suggested question. “When I get bored mouth I put pretty much anything in it,” was her first comment. She went on, “I’ll put anything in my mouth once, usually twice.” “Thank you for letting us know, in very general and clearly very unbiased terms, what you like to put in your mouth,” I said.
“You’re welcome,” she said taking a bite of her Reuben. I’m hoping she did that because she was hungry and not bored. Being that she immediately took a second bite, I have a feeling (and hope) it was hunger.
