I didn’t vote, but I already have some inspiration.

He is only nonverbal in the very beginning, like a baby. He becomes fluent in French just from listening to a family’s conversations.

Well, they both have wheat hair.

According to my dictionary tarte flambee is supposed to be the English (or rather French) name for Flammkuchen.

Maybe, but in German we call it vegetable pie.

As an uninvolved German I’d like to add that deep dish pizza is very close to what we call vegetable pie.

Nope, that’s an actual quote from the book. I think it’s also the very last page.

Size charts of online shops are often useless. They don’t take different brands, cuts or materials into account. Years ago I ordered some shorts from H&M. The material was so stretchy that it sagged and stretched just from its own weight. I got them in a medium and still could put them on or off without undoing the…

I have several items in size M and several in size XXL, in general I’m a 12/14 (I also own some vintage items that are labeled as 20 and 24). Add to that different heights and proportions. A 5'3 size 16 and a 5'10 size 16 look very different.
