I'd seen the beautiful dishes and hoped to have some someday, and so when our chicken-salad lunch was served on those familiar plates I told her how much I'd always admired them.<br /><br />Since it was before College French, and my admiration was always from afar, I pronounced it as it looks: Quim-per.<br /><br />The lady told me loudly in front of all those ladies in hats that the proper pronunciation was Keeum-payah, so THAT was a lesson learned.RachelDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11204947567574886675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-84068898145736636592010-02-08T21:54:23.780-05:002010-02-08T21:54:23.780-05:00What wonderful Quimper collection!

She was my sister's son's. He was overwhelmed with 2 dogs, living in a bachelor, works all day and never walked her. So now she's in a better home and all is well. We found him a condo and hopefully he will be happy.<br />Glad you found me and I hope you met CC.<br />I love her.<br />Love to you and yes your TT was beautiful.<br />Love Claudie<br />oxoxoxclaudiehttp://claudie.frid.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-38699497046606924872009-04-24T11:23:00.000-04:002009-04-24T11:23:00.000-04:00Debbie, I love seeing your collection!
