Please describe it to me, I don't understand.
"A smoof! A smoof! You know, what you use to smoof your clothes with..."
He was talking about an iron. I will never forget it. I love language and dialects, and this was a new one on me and I've been around for a while.
I only use my smoof for quilting, too, unless I get antsy and decide to smoof our cloth napkins.
Maybe "smooth" your clothes? Imassumevthat the girlfriend wanted to smooth things out?
