"I made myself breakfast this morning!" I said over-enthusiastically to my groggy, sleep-deprived boyfriend (a six-hour time difference will make for some interesting half-asleep conversations).
"Oh yeah? What did you have?" He responded, more grumble that articulable words.
"Well, I made eggs with cheese, had sliced tomato on the side, and...turkey."
"Turkey? You ate turkey for breakfast? Is that a Polish thing?"
"Well, no. I meant to get ham, but I couldn't tell the difference at the grocery store so I accidently came home with turkey. So I just ate it anyway."
"How do you not know the difference between turkey and ham?"
"Well, I mean, it's all in Polish, and most meat looks the same to me anyway, I'll figure it out eventually."
"You are going to be there for six months and you don't know the difference between ham and turkey?"
"Oh shut up."
Maybe the "meat confusion" is due to the fact that you were a vegetarian for so long. Can you tell the difference between iceberg lettuce and cabbage? How about broccoli and asparagus? And....are you REALLY sure that it was turkey and not some other mystery meat?
