Is worsch the german word for wash? I never knew that. I always wondered where that got started.
To be honest with you from this end of the world - my sister always played with words - she is so good at that - and she rhymed wash the squash and "funned" it a little bit by saying warsh the squarsh!!!
Five inches of snow here - in a snow emergency, so I had to move the van so it wouldn't get towed away!!!!! And my feet are cold!!!! Edie
The German word for wash is wasch pronounced Vahsh - waschtag means washday. I have a sign hanging on the wall going down to the basement:
Mag die Hausfrau
Sonnenschein
haben an jedem
Waschtag.
May the housewife have sunshine on her washday. Isn't that sweet? Edie (again)
