My Favorite Story Yet

Okay so this may not be the best story I have told, but I found it to be the most amusing experience yet.

Blah blah blah…and so Auriane and her mother went to Auriane's first guitar lesson. I was home and just hanging out and then heard noises downstairs. I saw that it was Alan who was cooking dinner. He showed me that he bought some honey and said that I should have some. He got out a cup and a spoon and put a huge spoonful into the cup. Then he asked if I wanted more or if that was enough, I am not really sure which; I said okay and he looked at me funny. I said that is enough and he said “oh?” and so I said "I don’t know, whatever" (or something like this), he put in another huge spoonful. I made a face like “oh geez...” but I do not think he saw it and another spoonful (or two) went in.

Was I supposed to just eat it? Like it was candy, with the spoon? I wonder how long it would take me to do this...maybe I could ask for some bread or something to dip in the honey. Then he asked me "water?" I said yes and was very glad that I did not have to drink the cup full of honey. He added some water and stirred...I will repeat: he added some water and stirred. I sat at the table thinking, how strange, who drinks water and honey without heating up the water? It is going to taste like some crazy soda or something.

Mid thought he asked “chaud?” I said “yes!” If it was warm, at least then I could drink it like tea. He heated up the honey water and then took it out and gave it to me. It was the color of water once a teabag has been sitting in it for 5 minutes. It was ridiculously sweet but 100% drinkable. He was very kind about the whole thing and I think what he tried to do was incredibly nice. I hope that he did not hear me giggling since at some thinking about drinking honey or honey in room temperature water was very comical to me.

We had a very hard French and English lesson that I think we both learned from and then he thanked the heavens when he heard the back door open.
