La Fashionista: Let’s not add to the French self-esteem–they are already convinced they represent the epitome of taste! Although in matters of good taste, they are still very much up there.
PS: We’re adding vegetable vocabulary. You want culture? Beware you should get what you ask for!

By all means, continue! You’re adding culture to the blog. Besides, any mention of Paris equates to fashion, as far as I’m concerned. ;-)

@studawg – You are hard-core indeed, my friend. I didn’t even know that a mange-tout was a snow pea. I guess I never ate such expensive items while a poor student in “Paree”. (I was also told I sound like a snob when I say “as a student in Paris…” what am I supposed to do? Change my resume?) Boston Lettuce – uh, I mean, laitue – was about the priciest I went. Oh, so sorry, @StyleCynics, we are straying far from fashion, aren’t we? Unless you have a laitue-colored boot with a celeriac stripe?
StuDawg, are you on Twitter? I’ll follow you, we need smiles. I’m @D_Chehab.

@Diane C. I know what the hell is a Eggplant?
Let me indulge myself while I’m on a tangent. I also call zucchinis – courgettes, snow peas – mange tout and celery root – celeriac.

Hee hee! I knew that’d get someone a little riled up! No worries. I had a barista at Starbucks make fun of me once because I pronounced croissant the way it’s supposed to be pronounced. Of course, he quit when I responded with, “I guess someone doesn’t want a tip, huh?” :-P

Nice assortment. I admit to be one those people who say “aubergine” and pronounce celebrities’ names the way they are pronounced in the original language, if I know that language. Sorry. Just another of those annoying folks.
