So there I was at the nail salon today watching the Barefoot Contessa with the nail girls while getting my nails done and she [the barefoot contessa] was making a greek meal and she kept referring to hummus as "hoom-is" when I've always, always heard it pronounced "hum-is" and now because she's a professional, I'm thinking WTF ... who is right and how is it REALLY pronounced and how can I EVER ask for it in public again without being unsure? I can't. I can never eat hummus in public again. Damnit.
