It's actually the french spelling of an Arabic word. :ugeek:
Une 'Toque', in french, is a chef's hat. You are right.
Canadian name 'Touque' the winter hat because they are'nt able to say the french word properly.
It's 'Tuque', not 'Touque'

I believe there are three legit spellings in the dictionary, including touque, toque, and tuque

Touque is Canadian, and they can be any fabric. They can be more fitted or not, can have a giant fluff ball on top, whatever. I don't know why Americans don't have a set word for touques. It's like a deliberate resistance against calling them what they are. Touques.
I think it's cuz anything that goes on an American's head is simply (commonly) referred to as a hat (with the exception of bandanas and doo-rags). Of course there's more specific names for some things but since 'touques' are pretty much a cold weather clothing item only, they don't matter that much. For things that are more fashionable or cultural and less functional, they get specific names.
fwiw my auto correct refuses to accept touque as a word. It thinks I mean torque.
The only thing I dislike about this time of the year is I can't ever get the temperature right. I'm either too warm or too cold. Usually cold in the morning, then I'm hot at work, then I get home and I have to turn up the heat, then it gets too hot and I have to turn on the fan and then I'm cold again, lol
Another habit says it's in love with you
Another habit says its long overdue
Another habit like an unwanted friend
I'm so happy with my righteous self

I can't sleep without a fan on either... it's because I am broiling hot under the blankets otherwise. I turn into an furnace at night, even in the middle of winter. It sucks!

Ditto! There are night snugglers, and then there are folks like us... who want to put as much distance between themselves and anyone else in their bed as possible.... I am a big fan of king sized beds.
