  • ... that in 2013, the Daily Mirror reported that Brad Pitt had become so obsessed with jams made by Christine Ferber (pictured), that he flew to Alsace to meet her, though she says she never saw him at her shop? Source: [1], "Une rumeur née d'un "article" publié le 13 mai dernier par le Daily Mirror sur son site internet. Le tabloïd anglais affirme dans cet article que l’acteur américain Brad Pitt est tombé amoureux de… confitures. Et pas n’importe lesquelles : des confitures alsaciennes, celles de Christine Ferber en l’occurrence. Le tabloïd va même plus loin puisqu’il affirme que l’acteur se serait rendu en Alsace pour y faire ses achats." (A rumour born of an "article" published on May 13 by the Daily Mirror on its website. The English tabloid says in this article that American actor Brad Pitt has fallen in love with ... jams. And not just any: Alsatian jams, those of Christine Ferber in this case. The tabloid goes even further since it states that the actor would have gone to Alsace to shop there.)... "Sauf qu’à Niedermorschwihr, personne n’a vu passer d’acteurs hollywoodiens ce jour-là. Et surtout pas Christine Ferber, qui témoigne. « Je n’ai pas vu Brad Pitt ni dans ma cuisine ni dans ma boutique. Nous avions beaucoup de monde à la boutique ce jour-là parce que nous étions fermés les mercredi et jeudi, pour ma part j’étais coincée à la cuisine toute la journée », se souvient-elle." ("Except that in Niedermorschwihr, no one saw Hollywood actors that day. And especially not Christine Ferber, who testifies. "I did not see Brad Pitt in my kitchen or in my shop. We had a lot of people at the store that day because we were closed on Wednesday and Thursday, for my part I was stuck in the kitchen all day, "she recalls.")
    • ALT1:... that jams made by French chocolatier Christine Ferber (pictured) are sold in Tokyo Isetan department stores, and are wrapped in red cloth and with a white bow? Source: [2], "À Tokyo où elle est vénérée, ses pots recouverts d'un tissu rouge et fermés par un nœud blanc sont une valeur sûre du grand magasin ­Isetan." ("In Tokyo, where she is revered, her pots covered with a red cloth and closed with a white bow are a sure bet in the Isetan department store.")
    • ALT2:... that in 2005, French chocolatier Christine Ferber (pictured) produced a cookbook Alice's Little Kitchen in Wonderland, in reference to Lewis Carroll's book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland?Source: [3], "Mit ihrem neuen Kochbuch "Alice im Schlaraffenland" hat Christine Ferber jetzt einem Buch ein Denkmal gesetzt, zu dem sie keine ganz einfache Beziehung hat." ("With her new cookbook "Alice's Little Kitchen in Wonderland", Christine Ferber has now set a memorial to a book to which she does not have a very simple relationship.")

  • Comment: Hooks are under 200 characters if you exclude the ... and (pictured), as per WP:DYKHOOK. 11 May (birthday) would be good day to run this, or during March (women's history month)

  • article is new enough, long enough, passes Earwig's copyvio detection test, and is interesting. Reads as neutral, has good citations. First hook is interesting; I would wikilink Alsace. QPQ review is complete. I'd say it's good to go! Nice work, Joseph2302! = paul2520 (talk) 16:25, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
