Hi Noreen,
That's what my Mom said her Dad used to tell her she was Heinz 57.
Hugs,
Nora
Here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (well, about an hour north), the Heinz
57 description is the most common. I suppose that would make sense with the Heinz plant downtown. :)Joy (who is a "heinz 57" herself; married to a man who is 25% Italian, about 10% Cherokee, and the rest "mutt" )
TAMAR you should embroider or knit this Language`s symbols
Remember that my keyboard has 2 different letterings ... mirjam
Christine , don`t worry ,, the English got a temper as well , but they hide it neatly under some well knit sweaters ,,, :>:>:> mirjam
I don't actually lose my temper very often, but I can really make it look as if I'm VERY cross if it's useful. (Don't often do that either!) But I do have some *very* well knit sweaters Love & higs (in a very good mood; day off work, going shopping!) Christine
Did you hear about the Irish man who was walking around the streets with a cabbage at the end of a lead....eventually some old lady went up to him and said... ''' why are you going around with a cabbage on the end of a lead sir?'' The Irish man looked down at his cabbage and then at the old woman and said... '''That ain't no cabbage, it's a Cauli !'' (collie) + (Cauli as in Cauliflower)

AHA Christine , you know i just teased you .... I am embroidering the parts on the woven piece and it developes well , i may surprise myself and finnish it before traveling ... mirjam
ROTFL Cher, you ARE daft... no wonder I love you! hehehe
*hugs* Gem- Now I have to send this joke off to my friend in Ireland... he'll crack up laughing over this one.
Gem, The dropped "h" was common in outport communities, but not at all where I lived. Central and western Newfoundland residents didn't drop or add it. THe isolated islands tended to do it, too, but given that many of these people came from parts of England where this was common, that is not surprising.
Higs, Katherine
Will we get to see this piece when it's finished Mirjam? Love & higs Christine
