"Can I steal someone's yogurt?"

As someone who enjoys learning languages and has made blunders along the way, I find this story particularly funny and endearing. And we all know that we have made mistakes similar to this one:

Yesterday Binod (the volunteer from Nepal) was eating leftover curry takeaway. It was too spicy for him and he was suffering while eating it more than enjoying it. Sue suggested that he put yogurt on it to make the spiciness less intense. He was yelling all over the house, "Can I steal someone's yogurt". He disappeared into the kitchen and returned with his plate of curry with yogurt on top. However, he had misunderstood Sue had suggested he put plain yogurt on his food and instead he put strawberry yogurt on top.

Now, that is not a curry I'd like to try!!!

Hi, Christina. Love the curry story. The combo sounds awful but actually may have been good--sweet and spicy.

What did Binod think?
