Why does my sugar package have these green leaves that look like mint? Um, that's because I didn't read the label very well. Sucre a la menthe. That's mint sugar, Rachel. Not plain sugar. I won't be making banana bread with this...
Okay, I know it's nail polish remover, but it's still disconcerting to see "ricin" on something that you put on your nails.
Also (on a unrelated note), if you look at the small print (which is hard to see, I realize), second and third lines, you'll see why I love Portuguese. I've never studied it, but I can read it because it's so similar to Spanish. Which makes me feel smart. Like, Hey, I can understand this language and I didn't even "learn" it. Then I go out and try my still-shaky French and get blank looks and I come back down to earth.
