Fun with English

I was looking for something online this morning and came across this hysterical misprint on a website. It gives new meaning to 'doing' the laundry :-)


This reminded me of the wacky English translations on signs & packaging we came across while travelling in China. This phrase is from a packet of tissues I got in China. It says:

"For soft and comfortable life you can really feel good."

This was printed on a pair of shorts. (I was so amused that I had to buy them.) It says:

"Love & Life, Joy & Peace, Amazing Play Time." (huh??)

And since I risk a stern reprimand from my mother if I fail to include a picture of Zoe in each post, here are some random shots from the past few weeks:

Sadly this is blurry, but it's such an excellent Zo-Hawk, I had to include it.
