Hot Nose Burp

New game. Use "hot nose burp" in a sentence, phrase, paragraph, short story, or simply give it a definition. We'll see who gets it closest to Elizabeth's definition. She's been developing her own words (and sometimes language) since she was two years old. Nikki and I have always been intrigued by the consistency of context with which she applies her creations. We're equally surprised that we usually know exactly what she's talking about as soon as she says it. So give us your best shot!


P.S. Nikki is so proud that my first blog posting is under this title. I have to admit, I am a little giddy knowing "Hot Nose Burp" is somehow being forced onto Tightywhitey!

Ok, I thinking a hot nose burp is the sensation you feel in the pool when you get water up your nose. Only it's not hot, so maybe a hot nose burp is this same sensation with coffee or soup? I'm not sure how you would get either of those things up your nose, but mine is not to wonder why.

Sthil!

I'm very proud of my broher's first post being about "Hot Nose Burps". Here goes:

As I sat in the job interview, wishing I hadn't drank so much Jolt Cola beforehand, I could feel a belch coming on. You know, the kind you can recite the entire ABC's with. Anyway, with my lips clinched tight in my effort to suppress it, up it came, but was exhaled through my nostrils as a hot nose burp. I'm just glad it wasn't a warm navel poot.

PS: My word verification was "direness", which seems very appropriate for this post and its comments.

Both very close and essentially describe the same sensation! Elizabeth used the phrase to describe what was happening to her after drinking Blenheim Ginger Ale. That stuff will help an upset tummy and apparently clear your sinuses at the same time.

You gave your child Blenheim Ginger Ale? Shrun.....
