Why do I keep calling 'turkey' 'torkey'?
Back before we were a couple, Rosemary and I had jobs in a wine bar/restaurant in the Westheimer Arts District in Houston.
Back in the kitchen, we had several staff who were recent immigrants from Mexico. Their English was a lot better than my Spanish, but we had one cook who called the meat 'torkey'. That wasn't funny by itself; a foreign accent stopped being funny a long time ago.
But, since Spanish is spelled exactly as it's pronounced, she naturally assumed that was how to spell it, so there was a container in the cooler with sliced meat that was labeled 'torkey'. Rosemary and I used to crack up about that. Ever since then, in our house, turkey is called 'torkey'.
