You should visit California! My "northern European" daughter lives in the San Francisco Bay Area and a few years ago her local newspaper announced that "white" is the minority in her town. When I teased her about it, she said she wasn't "white" because they go by last names so she is Asian. (Then she had the cheek to ask me if I felt "comfortable" visiting her!). I don't know what I am hearing half the time, but you hear all sorts of languages when walking on the street... all sorts of Asian, Middle Eastern, East Indian, Hispanic (at least that is basically one language), and even English at times
.
I have no idea how any of them say "quilt".
