*blush*
Well, son-of-a-gun...
Main Entry: va·nil·la
Pronunciation: v&-'ni-l&, -'ne-
Function: noun
Etymology: New Latin, from Spanish vainilla vanilla (plant and fruit), diminutive of vaina sheath, from Latin vagina sheath, vagina
Date: 1662
It probably refers more to sheath, which happens to mean the same thing as vagina in Latin... but still, it's a neat factoid!
Thanks, sb!
Now this jazz fan has to send a certain gun owner a quick little email...
