Morjes!

Welcome to my blog. I write about fitting in, sticking out, and missing the motherland as a serial foreigner.

Out of the mouths of babes

Miriam and I were at Costco the other day and these are some of the actual comments she made during our shopping trip:

"That's too expensive."

"Is it the right size?" and "Is it size two-and-a-half?"

"It's on a good sale."

"It's not on a good sale."

"Maybe we'll buy it later."

"We forgot grapes!"

I didn't know she'd been listening so closely to all the things I say when we're shopping! And I was minorly mortified that statement number one, "It's too expensive," was the thing she said most often, followed closely by "It's not on a good sale."

Kids really are mirrors of ourselves.

Running to terms

A steal of a deal
