A past life remembered?

Brett loves pretzels. But since he's been eating them, he's called them "buckles." We think it's strange, but it was about the same time he started wanting to do up his own buckles in the high chair etc, so it made sense in a weird kind of way.

Yesterday, Auntie Cindy and I were shopping and we noticed the French side of the bag of pretzels: boucles! Is it possible Brett spoke French in a past life and remembers the word for pretzels? I'm now on the lookout for more non-English words. Watch for future updates!
