i grew up in a very country area & my mom has a little bit of an accent. it wasn't until probably jr high or high school that i realized that what i had been hearing as "chester drawers" was actually "chest of drawers". i thought that maybe the piece of furniture was invented by some guy named chester. it certainly makes more sense now. move over jessica simpson!
