I love your answer choices. It reminds me of my high school French class, in which a girl (not moi!), defined "canne a peche", which means a fishing rod, as "a can of peaches". She should write for your quiz.
bien sur! my guest blogger Dave Koblitz is a composer and music teacher who knows a lot about food.
pas pire!
