Slime or Mucus

Obviously, I've seen The Princess And The Frog too many times.
Me: "Sarah got *slime* on your Captain America blanket? (raised eyebrow) What do you mean by 'slime'?"
Andrew: "I mean SLIME!"
Me: "(sigh) I'm feeling confused, Andrew. Where did the slime come from?"
Andrew: "Her MOUTH!"
Me: "Oh. It's not slime, it's mucus. Remember?"
