My French est très mauvais.
I learnt it from the upstairs maid
Vous etes tres dumb, she’d say.

She taught me how to kiss bonjour
On one cheek then the next.
But when we got to all things French
O’ercome was I, perplexed.

I was a gangly twelve back then
And she a dozen more.
So beautiful she stopped my brain
Constanza, je t’adore!

Danielle: It's prettier that way too, isn't it? Other party nouns are also feminine. Perhaps Carlos won't mind if we make a small revision. Andrea: We’ll have a date for the next blogfest soon.

I would have assumed <i> la reine <em>de la</em> blogfest.</i> I didn’t realize ‘blogfest’ was a masculine noun. I would have assumed la reine de la blogfest.
