Signs

Really? All Americans …

I was grocery shopping with my sister Laura in Minnesota a few weeks ago and just had to capture this:

All Americans

I used to joke as an English teacher I’d never be out of a job in China as long as there were humorous sign translations. Apparently the same is true in America :).

I also laugh at how ridiculous we humans can be. I can see why dogs might want soft and chewy treats, but do they really need to be gluten free? And if you don’t know what beef is, at least you have the picture of the cow to help. Let’s not forget, they were made with love.

Happy Tuesday! A Beyond the Surface Newsletter will be coming out on Friday, so if you don’t get it, check your spam.

Here’s to job security and joy in the little things.

    You know the cow picture could be a deception. If they don’t actually say it’s cow then it might not be. The picture makes you draw that conclusion not any facts. We often link things that may not be linked.
