Last November, my blog was 18 years old. To celebrate that, I asked my readers to submit a Guest Post for my blog to celebrate our connectedness as a community through social media.
I hope you will send me your story or a glimpse into your life. I know so many of you through the comment section and emails; I hope this will introduce you to one another. Thank you in advance for being part of French la Vie / Tongue in Cheek.

Hello-Bonjour!
My name is Christine Dickinson. I am happy to introduce myself and my small business in Chico, California. A small town just 32 miles from Corey’s home town Willows, California.
I am a curator of various types of jewelry and decorative items. My career was in dentistry for 35-plus years. I do keep a hand in it still a bit. I am employed part-time at Far Northern Regional. A community program serving mentally challenged patients and their dental needs at our local Chico hospitals. I’m happy to participate in this community service utilizing my dental skills. With my hand skills and talent, I discovered my creative side and have enjoyed this new avenue of creating. Years of working with dental products, alginates, plasters, resins, etc., led me to experiment and create casted jewelry and decorative items. Also, hand and feet castings, teeth whitening trays, mouth guards, and nitegaurds locally at my Studio in Chico.

During that visit, I noticed Corey's necklace, a cluster of French religious medals. I was amazed to hear these were all little pieces of history made many years ago with various dates, each representing a special meaning. To know they all had a story of a pastime just fascinated me. I asked-
