Not The Sundae Best Choice of Words

I was once at one of those Hibachi restaurants, and at this one they give you free ice cream on your birthday. I didn’t want mine, so I gave it to my grandparents. When I was recounting the story of my “birthday ice cream” to my boyfriend, I accidentally said:

Me: “Yeah, dinner was great. I let my grandparents eat my ‘birth cream’.”

Boyfriend: *Laughing.* “Wow! You saved it all this time?”

I have thought about my words before I spoke them sooooo carefully ever since then.
