Out to dinner last night with a big group here in London (here for the International Association for the Study of Youth Ministry), when Jonny Baker and his end of the table (Will Penner and Jay and Jen Howver of Youth Specialties and Mike King of YouthFront) started laughing hysterically after I ordered dessert. [Background: Frangelico is an Italian hazelnut liquour, and it’s highly yummy.]
What I said to the waiter: “I’d like the tiramisu, an espresso, and a Frangelico.”
What Jonny heard me say: “I’d like the tiramisu, an espresso, and I’m an evangelical.”
