Description
Set of Pin Buttons: Louisiana French Sayings
Five pins. Five moods. One heritage that does not translate cleanly into English, and never has.
If you grew up hearing these, you already know. If you married into it, consider this your study guide.
Valamad! For when the situation has gone all the way past words.
Mais là! The all purpose reaction. Shock, delight, disappointment, mild betrayal. Tone does the work.
Coonass. Wear it if it’s yours to wear. You know if it is.
Et toi! Straight off the bandstand. If a zydeco band never hollered this at you mid song, you have not lived enough.
Fasheaux! That’s “fa sho,” dressed up. Because “for sure” never needed that many letters, and we never needed that few.
Pin one to your jacket, your tote, or your lanyard at the family reunion. Somebody will stop you inside the hour. They will either laugh or ask who ya people. Both are the point.
Louisiana raised. Wherever you call home now.
