Sugar Duck

When in secondary school I had a French pen pal who I met though an exchange our schools organised to improve our language skills.  Céline and I became good friends and remained pen pals for many years, visiting each other on occassion and still exchange Christmas cards today.

During one of my visits I discovered the French endearment "Bonjour mon Petit Canard en Sucre" which translates as "Hello, my Little Sugar Duck" and used it constantly so Céline began to send me duck themed postcards during our correspondence.

Here's a little selection of the super cute petit canard postcards she sent over the years.

 
From Céline when in Pont Chateau, France - 1990's
