France and onion

 Good grief. 

I'm sitting at home working with a whole Tres Marie Pannetone right beside me. Longo's has started selling them early enough. And I sit here with no one to share it with.... my folks can't eat more sweet carbs, and neither can the bf, my nephew can't due to traces of nuts, and I cannot bring it to work to share since too many hands on a bread cake you need to hold and cut or tear apart is a no-no for these covidized times....

So my sugar filled mind thinks randomness:

I took a break to look at FB and was thinking of some of the comments on my professional group site, and reflected on how important it is to at least hear a person out and understand it... even if you don't agree. I guess its easier when the topic is not a passionate one. 

The thought of saying its ok to have a difference of opinion.....led me to focus on the term

Difference of opinion....

Then I tried to say it more fancy with a French accent (from France, not Quebec) with a sing-songy tone that stretches the words out..... 

"Dif- FRANCE of opin-IIEYON"

French accent with emphasis on the pronunciation of France and opinion like you are saying ONION.....

I think it adds that extra something that makes it seem more gentle and elegant when you disagree..... ha.
