Hey, I am trying! lol- well ok, they are making me.

But they have rules and then don't follow em. KFC should be KFC since it is a trademark.

And since we are moving to a "real" frenchy type area, I had better improve my French. But, to be honest, when they hear me butcher the language, they switch to English right away.
