In German birth control pills are called "anti-baby pills"
Tonya and I found that really funny, but Cecilia couldn't understand why.
Tonya's aunt is a midwife so she "delivers babies"
The German equivalent doesn't quite translate, but apparently the term delivery is really funny.
On the board announcing dinner today Ryan wrote "Moussaka. Mousse. Lekker ding!"
I was like "Um, I don't think you want to say that Ryan." It got changed to "Lekker eten!" and then to "Mmm Lekker!" to keep with the "m" theme.
