My son, to me, as I was preparing dinner: Mom, why do you always put a torchon on your épaule when you're kitchenin'?
All you francophones out there, feel free to chuckle along with me.

I've been meaning to ask you the same thing. Whatever it means.

I speak French about as well as I ballet dance. And I'm overweight and clumsy - you figure it out. :)
Glad you're having fun with your son though!

sounds like he's asking you why you put torches in your pockets in the kitchen.
but, i only took 2 yrs of french in high school and remember next to nothing (obviously).
so what does it mean?
miss you!

Well, why do you? I wouldn't put it on my shoulder, more like on the counter. While I'm kitchenin' of course.

I have mine on my shoulder whenever I'm in the kitchen. It may be a comfort thing. It is my bicky.
