It took this Texan a couple seconds but I got it - fire/afar.

The word that chaps my hide is pecan. It’s puh-con, not pee-can. A pee can is an empty coffee can that you take with you on a long car ride.

You nearly caused a keyboard accident. I had no idea that it was possible to snort home-made lasagna! “Pee-can”, indeed.

In my corner of Florida, I, an ex-Minnesota carpetbagger, hear “puh-cahn” when my neighbors talk about the nut crop.
