Cabbaging?

So in the last post I enterred the word "capachino". Of course, it was flagged by the blogger spell checker. But they didn't give me the right spelling for capachino.

They did however offer "Cabbaging" as a possible solution. I had not heard of the term cabbaging before. I have heard of salad tossing (but that is really different - trust me on that slang).

Apparently cabbaging refers to purloining. As in, that tailor is cabbaging a yards of cloth. I think that is pretty esoteric useage (althought that was the dictionary example). Maybe it is a ye olde word(e).
