In addition to quilt viewing, the event includes The Country Store for browsing and buying new and vintage items. Also, fabric vendors will be on hand and door prizes will be given away. A lunch and beverage bar will be A rose by any other name (or pronunciation) ... I like to think I have a pretty good command of the English language, but sometimes it’s the pronunciation that gets me. I’m glad I’m in print media, because unlike radio and TV, as long as you spell the words correctly, you’re good to go. I recently ¿elded a phone call from a Tri-Cities news station inquiring how to pronounce Tammy Malgesini “the local middle school.” A co-work- INSIDE MY SHOES er had told me a news anchor had completely slaughtered the pro- nunciation of Armand Larive the night before in a newscast. Just to mess with the guy, I said rather slowly, “Sandstone Middle School.” There was silence on the other end of the phone and then the guy said, “No, another one.” And then he attempted to pro- nounce Armand Larive. Honestly, I felt his pain. I’ve had my share of laughable lin- guistic moments. However, when I mess up on words my audience is generally a small group or just one person — not thousands of TV viewers. But, my husband doesn’t soon let me forget my phonetic foibles. Like the time I was talking about a particularly disturbing part in the available for purchases. Tickets for the rafÀe quilt are $1 each or si[ for $5. The drawing is Satur- day, Oct. 10 at 3 p.m. The winner doesn’t have to be present. While enjoying the dis- plays, visitors are invited to vote for their favorites. A pair of people’s choice rib- bons will be awarded. For more information, contact Morgan at 541-314- 2150 or midnite_kate@hot- mail.com.

Saying it was quite macabre — only pro- nouncing it mack-a-bree. Or when I was telling him about talking to someone about an episode of “In- tervention” and how the situation quickly went awry — pronouncing it awe-ree. And, of course, there was the time I was obtaining infor- mation from the concierge desk at a fancy San Francisco hotel. Yup, I messed that one up too, saying kon-kur-odge. Evidently my linguistic limita- tions are especially an issue when dealing with French words. I was covering a 4-H horsemanship competition shortly after starting with the newspaper. I didn’t have a clue what dressage was, much less how to pronounce it. I approached someone who appeared to be af- ¿liated with the competition and asked, “What e[actly is dressage"” Only I pronounced is like dress- age: dress as in the article of cloth- ing, and age, like what age is the participant. Put that together and it’s nothing like the actual French pronunciation of druh-sahzh. Luckily, I can laugh at my fau[ pas — and at least I know that’s not pronounced fo[ paws.
