This is a formal apology

I know I make fun of my wife on occasion for being a “City Girl”…..well, this is my formal apology, yes you are a gamer, have started drinking beer, talked about going hunting, are shopping for handguns with me….and applying for a concealed carry permit with me as well….but after hearing one phrase come out of a co-workers mouth, I take it all back, every time I EVER called you a "City Girl"….you are the perfect wife any guy could hope for….

 
What was this phrase?
Coming from the mouth of someone on the other side of a cubicle wall….
 
“Speaking of cooking, I found some weird tasting rosemary on the ground by one of the pine trees in my back yard. I used it in some soup and the flavor was just horrible, I couldn’t get it out of my mouth, it was almost like it the soup just turned bad”
 
My head almost exploded trying not to laugh, but I managed to stand up and look for the person, but didn’t see who said it.... It’s a shame, I would have considered it an accomplishment to meet someone who can look at prickly little twigs sitting under a pine tree and think “Rosemary” and not have the thought “Pine needle” even enter their mind, even after they ate it….
 
So, yes, my wife has officially been upgraded to “outdoorsy” after learning that there are people who really are dumb enough to warrant the big note on the back of the rat poison box that says “Warning; not for human consumption”
 
Auto out-

That is awesome, almost as good as when my mother (a pavement dweller from Philadelphia and later Asbury Park prior to joining the Army) and her Girl Scout friends ate poison ivy to develop an immunity to it on a camping trip.
