Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No sex for you, Steph, ever.

What is even happening?
It's a wonderful world, Aimee.
Chris is asking me the Spanish for "Merry-go-round". I disappointed him when I told him I didn't know.
Today on the way home from the doctor's office, he started counting. Once he realized he was impressing his big brother and sister, there was no stopping him. He got to 240, before we got home. Then we got in the driveway, and realized we'd left his jacket at the doctor's, so he counted backwards all the way there. When he got to zero, he went into negatives, and Ben & Julia's jaws hit the floor of the car. He stopped counting every time the car stopped, so only got to negative 20. He was very proud to have impressed the big kids.

I've seen cilantro referred to in recipes as "Coriander leaf". It's a weird usage, but it's out there. I've also seen it called "Chinese parsley", I don't know why.
The Starbucks drink is Chantico. The chocolate thing, anyway. Everything else they make I refer to as "coffee" on casual conversation. 'Cause I'm a heathen that way.
Hey, look, you can order muffalettas online! From Galveston. Huh. [link]

Not with a closed anorak, anyway.

We just got this note about a theft in the library:
She was working on her laptop, her backpack was on the floor, between her feet. A short time later she noticed that her backpack was gone as was the man sitting next to her.
That's a bold, sneaky thief with nerves of steel. Or steal.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I don't think I've ever had it, unless it's been mixed into a food and I didn't know it.
You've probably had it in Mexican food at some point.

I suspect this link will not work, but Anorankh Pendant
(eta: it doesn't. But if you go to "Discworld Exclusives" on the pull down menu and scroll down to the 17th and 18th pictures in the left frame, there are Anorankhs)
