As in: "Mom, your cream of wheat is simply sabulous!" She probably will hear you wrong, and not realize you are suggesting she can't cook cream of wheat.

Sandy; gritty.

[From Latin sabulum (sand).]

"Clinical disorders of the lower urinary tract of cats are not new
phenomena. Kirk, for example, described `retention of urine' as a
very common condition in cats. He also noted that the most common
cause of the problem was obstruction of the urethra by a sabulous
material."

Diseases in Cats, The Journal of Nutrition (Bethesda, Maryland), Dec 1998.
