Lost in Translation

I was recently breaking proverbial bread with a Catholic friend of mine. Being that I am pretty WASPy I had to ask her to define some of the words she was using.

She was describing the details of a recent homily at her church.

"I don't know what a homily is. Isn't that something you eat like grits?"

"No Erin, that's HOMINY."
