Au Marché
Bonjour Marie-Lou,
(bisou, bisou, bisou)
T’a mal ou ?
La hanche, le genou -
un peu partout.
Me too.

Translation of this regularly heard exchange among my age group:
At the Market
Hallo Mary Lou.
(air kisses, three)
Where does it hurt?
My hip, my knee,
just about everywhere.
And me.

That is so adorable. I wish someday I’ll have an “old lady” friend like that too. Except we’ll be eating ice cream on a bench, while people watching at the park.
Fun in French and English!
I just found this in my inbox; I must have missed it.
Oh, me, too. Oui, oui:)
Now, I hope I keep these kinds of girlfriends to a ripe old age! Grande dames, for sure, Viv. Love, Amy
Ok that made me laugh! gorgeous! c
I’m glad to make you laugh after the horrible day you’ve had.
