oui, oui mon cheri

I love dictionary.com. It has settled a few bets and frequently turned me into a smug motherfucker ("See? I told you it meant 'ass-kissing weasel.'") I also love it because it has a translator. Which was very helpful today when I wanted to figure out how to say "with a chicken potpie." In French.

Those of you who just asked "why?" are clearly on the wrong site and know nothing, NOTHING about me and need to wander off the CNN or something.

Incidentally, I also learned the following phrases:

le pingouin est dans le pudding
The penguin is in the pudding.


Pingouin ! Sors de mon pudding !
Penguin! Get out of my pudding!

And in a Magritte moment - This is not French.
Ce n'est pas français

Keep those handy on that next trip to Paris. I'm sure they'll be very useful.
