ouch
I am constantly burning my mouth and getting mouth blisters from hot food. Don't tell me it's a matter of training my mouth, because I won't believe you. And if you tell me it's an issue of improving my character (i.e. that I need to think before I bite), I will believe you, but it won't make any difference, because I've tried to change, and I know by now that I never will. The writing on this etegami says "Neko-jita" (cat's tongue). It's a phrase used when describing a person who is extremely sensitive to hot liquids or foods. I guess I'm just a cat person.

Haha, not funny, but kind of is. My husband is impatient and burns his mouth on hot soups, etc. as he does not wait for them to cool a tad. Cute post. Stop burning your mouth woman!!
ReplyDeleteLove Margie's comment! I confess to adoring hot and spicy foods....yes. I burn my tongue too!
ReplyDeleteA-ha-ha! Absolutely adore the etegami and it's *Neko-jita*! You are teaching me so much!

I sometimes have that problem too!
ReplyDeleteI love the word Neko - have you seen the film Rentaneko?
I remember seeing ads for it on Japanese TV, but never actually saw the film. After reading up on it online, I'm convinced I have to see it! :)
DeleteI just saw Rentaneko for the second time yesterday, it's a lovely film, lots of sweet cats, an entertaining story and insightful at the same time....
