Dottie got to the post office today and picked up my SS gift, which it definitely is.  It has a sender's address in France, and says it's from "Le Chat Blanc."  It is for, I believe, Les Chats Blanches.
:doh3:Just got this.

Must wake up more... :lol3:

OK, I confess it was me! I loved buying for you and I hope that there is something for everyone in the household. Enjoy opening the parcels and I look forward to reactions to some of them!

I have been reading in the magazine you included.  I can see that some long sessions with a French/English dictionary are in my future!  (But I'm amazed sometimes at the words I remember, such as the words for turkey, gas cap, etc.)

If I get something before the 11th, I will probably open at least one then. That is my birthday and with finances like they are, it may be the only birthday gift I receive.

I was not sure which mag to include, but I thought that one would be good as it has some articles translated, and I did not know your level of French. On the doll, I did not actually make it myself - a friend did - she knits all sorts of French character dolls, and I just loved her fisherman, and thought it appropriate to the region. You can still see them dressed just like that down at the ports.
