We have a saying here in New Orleans that I'm sure isn't 100% grammatically correct, but you here it and see it everywhere you go. It's almost our slogan down here: Laissez les bon temps rouler! "Let the good times roll" Lots of "cajun french" down here ;)chrisa511https://www.blogger.com/profile/05793512698366676453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315611891697079859.post-91249256323944290362007-09-06T21:07:00.000-05:002007-09-06T21:07:00.000-05:00Mais, oui!

It's been ages ago, but I did have six years in French. Every time I had to take a Math class, I opted for French instead, because lucky me! It fulfilled the requirement. I even bought my wedding dress in Paris, although don't get me started on French women's sizes. They're about, oh, a zero in American.)<BR/><BR/>And yes, I do read it with a French accent. The kids love it. I can at least imitate the sound, if not the correct grammar, at this point.Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315611891697079859.post-9051771924725316752007-09-05T21:30:00.000-05:002007-09-05T21:30:00.000-05:00Bellezza, J'aime c'est livre aussi!haha!

Because if it's going to be read aloud, it MUST be read with a French accent. (Which I can do perfectly. For my class, of course.) <BR/><BR/>J'aime c'est livre.Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315611891697079859.post-11661470508641702762007-08-24T22:00:00.000-05:002007-08-24T22:00:00.000-05:00Cool Stephanie, got you entered for the drawing!Cool Stephanie, got you entered for the drawing!chrisa511https://www.blogger.com/profile/05793512698366676453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315611891697079859.post-39638209714830113722007-08-24T16:22:00.000-05:002007-08-24T16:22:00.000-05:00Oh, I see that I can leave a comment now - thanks!...Oh, I see that I can leave a comment now - thanks!!<BR/>Stephanie<BR/>thewrittenword.wordpress.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315611891697079859.post-46612346324621133132007-08-24T11:45:00.000-05:002007-08-24T11:45:00.000-05:00Thanks Eva :) Got you in the drawing!

I wouldn't want to put you to the trouble of paying for overseas postage (well, ONLY if you let me return the favour and send you something in return).
