LOL! Your slip just brought back memories of an embarrasing reply I made while holidaying in Australia. I was on my way to the Dandenong Mountains with my sister’s family and we decided to stop by at one of the quaint bakeries along the mountain road for a quick break.
She: What will you have, dear?
Me: I’ll have some tea, please.
She: English Breakfast, dear?
Me: I’ve already had breakfast. Just a cup of tea is fine for me.
And then it hit me…English Breakfast is a type of tea! In fact English Breakfast and Earl Grey are my favourite types of tea.
Me: Oh yes. English Breakfast is great.
I could see she was trying to hide a smile. So embarrassing. Where was my brain when I needed it! 😦
Helene, I perfectly understand how you feel. I’ve made a fool of myself many times. I try hard to pay attention, but maybe I’m too tired and I slip. 🙂 But, don’t these memories make travelling so much fun?

Sounds like something I would definitely do
