Here's @cecicastor explaining the meaning and origin behind their unique Username:

Let's start with the easy part. Castor is Spanish for beaver. I have been living in Spanish speaking countries for about 18 years.I am Canadian by birth and our national animal is the beaver (going back to the fur trading days and the Hudson Bay Company). Beavers are harder workers and fantastic construction engineers.

Ceci has a few meanings for me. Ceci is French for "This". Ceci also comes from Latin. Ceci in Italian is chickpeas or garbanzo beans. There is a story behind the beans.

When my husband and I were first married, I wanted to surprise him with a pot of homemade baked beans. I had the pot on low heat cooking, when hubby came in and wanted me to accompany him to the local farm parts store in town about 10 minutes away. He said we would be no more than a half hour, just a real quick trip. He said the beans would be fine for that long! So we went...

As we drove in the drive coming back, there was this large plume of black smoke pouring out of the kitchen window! We raced in to find the burning pot of beans! The beans nor the pot could be saved! No other damage, thank goodness! But neither one of has forgotten!

So there you have it! It is either "This Beaver" or my personal favorite "Beans Beaver"

Thanks for having me in our contest! I will let you know who is closest.
