Perhaps you meant "Gaelic?"

Maybe there is a lover to be found in Gilroy, California, aka Garlic City and home of the Gilroy Garlic Festival. I suppose if everyone there has garlic breath and if you do as well, then you don't smell it anymore.

I thought about mentioning Ajo, Arizona. Ajo is Spanish for garlic.

Garlic is ok, I guess, but chili now...that's special!!! The No-Tell Motel in Hatch, NM, of course.

There's a no-tell-motel in Emmaville, MN too! I love everything in garlic. I use it daily. I used to chew it but I scared people away from me, so now I just chop it up and swallow.

When I lived in Toronto in the 60s, I worked for American Airlines, and dealt with people buying tickets, etc. I remember an Italian man coming up to the counter and nearly knocking me over with the smell of garlic on his breath. I finished with him, then walked into a back room and complained bitterly to other staff members.

In the 80s, I finally discovered garlic -- Italian food, Chinese food, various cuisines from around the world -- and realized I hadn't known what the hell I was talking about, and especially what I was missing.

Hey, Italian man from the 60s -- you were right, and I was wrong, and I'm so sorry! The whole world should eat garlic daily, just for the sheer joy of it.

So, can you smell me on this post?

In the case of garlic, if it's on the beloved's breath, maybe: "Táim dúnta i ngrá leat"!

Dúnta i ngrá means deeply in love, but literally it means shut in love.

Just found the other thread. Makes this make slightly more sense. But I get the feeling lately that Robin is playing the old game "My mother likes coffee but she doesn't like tea."

How is garlic like love?
It's good when it's cooking but bad when it's burning.
