Subject:   Re: More cajun words

Message:   Bryon, I recall people referring to a switch (for spanking kids) referred to as a "gaul" (sp. ?) and a "torchon" as a mopping up rag used for general cleaning around the house. We used "gargotte" to mean much the same thing - food unfit to eat, or stuff that tasted pretty bad. Like, "Sa sa mange seulement des gargotte" when referring to someone with poor choice in food.
