Last night a younger boy came up to me asking for "vI-aynuh 'tages". I didn't have a clue what he was saying so I asked him to repeat "vIII-aynuh 'tages" As someone who prides herself in working with strong accents, this one threw me. I asked him to describe it figuring I could probably figure it out.
"They're in a can"
Great, yeah that helps. Animal, mineral, vegetable? He also said their edible, but wouldn't give me any more description
After a long awkward pause his mom popped out into the asile. "He's asking for vIIII-aynah sausages"
It took me a minute then I realized....ohhh Vienna Sausages. Gotta love the West Texan use of vowels.
