I got the ginger!!!!!!
It was a beautiful sunny morning this morning and I was almost out of cat food so I had to go to the supermarket. Now a certain Zity member has been nagging me for weeks to try ginger (and I don't mean as a foodstuff 😉 ), so I decided that today I was finally going to buy some.
I had just found the ginger and started looking through for a suitable piece when this woman comes up, starts looking through as well and says 'great minds think alike'
So I'm thinking 'you cannot possibly be thinking what I am thinking'
When she says 'are there any decent bits?'
Trying sooo hard to keep a straight face I'm now thinking 'Depends for what purpose?' And 'decent as opposed to...?'
She then picks up one piece - says 'this one looks like rabbits ears!' - puts it in her basket and walks off!
So I'm now thinking 'Rabbit? Hmmm... wonder if she is kinky after all?'
How I kept a straight face until I got to the next aisle I will never know!!!! But I have been laughing about it all day since.
When someone said in Kinky Lounge the other night that ginger was a good cure for feeling 'so-so' I could not have imagined how much just buying it would lift my mood!
I was still chuckling about it a couple of hours later when F (my massage therapist) arrived, so I had to tell her the tale. Now F is one of three RL friends who knows I am a Zity member, but I had to explain what the ginger was for in order for her to see the funny side.
The nice thing about telling F about the ginger was that she knew R really well, and knew how I had been feeling earlier in the week. Once she had stopped laughing she immediately pointed out that what happened this morning was exactly his sense of humour - like he arranged it (which is partly what I was thinking at the time). 😃

Just dunking a ginger biscuit in my tea and now feeling positively queasy after reading this. Ginger-nuts are obviously off the menu for the foreseeable future for me. Well the McVitie's variety at least

Ask her "how did that ginger feel?

I have it also as a romantic sensibility of "yeah- we do know our own" on sight.

Absolutely hilarious. The next time you see the lady in the store ask her how her ginger was.
