Please forgive me, but I am very, very sleepy and must go to bed.
But this sharpened god word I must at least say is a strange thing to sleep on.
Those haricots verts--or however you say them in French--those are shapened gods? That's so strange. They don't look anything like gods, although they do look like sharpened pencils while still in the pods.
Yes, that's it! Haricot verts (or however they're spelled) = sharpened pods! It simply must have been a typo!
And now I'll sleep much more restfully, wwh.
(However, I suppose the Jolly Green Giant might be considered to be a sharpened god...hmmm. I wonder whether the marketing agency that came up with him studied etymology?)
