Good Saturday evening.
I have been told I paint a wonderful word picture. I didn't know what *word picture* meant but I kinda/sorta understood it from the context. Here, the definition
word pic·ture
wərd ˈpik(t)SHər/
noun
Okay, I get it but I don't do it on purpose.
The other day, we were talking about pie. Pie. A student said she did not like pie and when the teacher asked why, the student said, It doesn't feel good in my mouth. It's not good.
I, also, do not like pie for the same reason the student stated. Pie does not feel *good* in my mouth, my tongue. For me, the texture is ..off. The texture.
I have only tried fruit pie once. It was an apple pie. I did not like it and I'll tell why.
The apple pie looked and smelled delicious and I was all happy to chow down but
in my mouth...there was some kind of mucous? Sauce? Phlegm? with chunks of apple. Little and medium chunks of apple in viscous fluid.
Apple pie---when you have a stomach flu but don't know it... yet. You eat an apple and drink a Sprite and an hour later you throw up apple pie.
There. My word picture of apple pie.
Word picture.
Tell us yours.
Peace.
