AVALER DES COULEUVRES

Literally: Swallow garter snakes

Best equivalent: Drink the Kool-Aid

This post is the first of twenty-six that starts the 2018 A to Z Challenge. Each will be published every day but Sunday, for the entire month of April.

Today is an exception. Maybe because it is April Fool’s Day, Poisson d’Avril for the French.

I already wrote about the twist French give to the tradition of practical jokes. This post is from 2011, when none of you knew me 🙂

See you tomorrow for the letter B!
