AN ONION TRICK

”Snif!” ”?” //
”Everything okay? Why are you crying?” //
”It’s nothing, just the onions.” //
”You should keep water in your mouth when you’re cutting onions. It prevents your eyes from burning.” //
”A peculiar idea, but I can give it a try next time I’m cooking.” ”You do that!” //
A couple of days later… ”Oh yeah, the water-in-mouth thing!” //
”Glug glug!” //
”Okay, this feels dumb. And I don’t know why but… this is working!”
