Voulez-vous couchez avec moi ce soir?



My old friend Allison sent me this photo today, and I honestly would love to dive into this bed. Think of the possibilities for read-aloud intimacy! I was also at once reminded of the Patti LaBelle song whose famous line I used as the title of this post. Do ya'll remember that song? You can listen to it here. Then I started thinking about my high school boyfriend and the crazy concerts that we went to, one of which was Patti LaBelle. Dang, that was a good concert and that song is just -- well -- dang good. And no, there was no couchez avec moi in those days.

Am I dating myself?

Gitchi Gitchi ya ya da da!

  1. I love that song. Thanks for reminding me.
    I wonder what my dreams would be like if I slept in that bed? They might be overpowering.

  2. I remember telling my then teenaged sister-in-law what that meant, on the front of her t-shirt. She'd had no idea.

  3. Ha! I remember that song, though I'd forgotten it was by Patti LaBelle. I used to sing along, making up words that sounded like the French l didn't understand.
