Pasta and fries

July 7th, 2013

When this afternoon, returning to the car at a shopping centre, our little girl asked about “les pâtes”, we thought she was talking about dinner. But when the question came again, “les pâtes pour la piscine” (the pasta for the swimming pool) this time, we had to dig a little deeper.
Take a guess before you read on.

Hint #1: It’ll be easier for German and English speakers to find.
Hint #2: We’d just been at a sports store that day and bought something for her to use at the swimming pool during the holidays when the baby swimming equipment is not available.
Hint #3: Daddy calls it a “frite”, a fry as in French fries or a chip as in fish and chips.

Answer: her pool noodle (simply “Nudel” in German). Guess who she had been to the pool with recently 🙂
