Frank, Hummingbird syrup is the stuff people put in hummingbird feeders.
I know that now, although I didn't know that last night.
About 6:00 a.m. central time, 5:00 a.m. mountain time, I was at the Village Inn Restaurant in the big city.
We had a new waitress, her first day on the job. In fact, her first hour on the job.
I ordered waffles.
She inquired as to which kind of syrup I wanted.
Now, normally I just use regular syrup; one syrup's the same as another syrup, anyway.
This time, I said, "Well, I'd like to try this with hummingbird syrup, to see what it's like.
"You suppose it might be syrup with a flavor of poultry?"
She didn't know, and so went to get the manager, who had encouraged her to approach him whenever she had questions that stumped her.
Anyway.
I left her a $4 tip on a $3 breakfast.
