Funny Things - American Edition :)

I saw a lot of things that really made me laugh while in America. This first one was by far the funniest things we saw there. We laughed forever when we saw this van... You can see very well in this picture but the windows are full of crazy stuff.... but the thing that makes this van funny is the sign on the side....
It says "The Quintessential Genetic C.O.D.E, C.O.D.E and C.O.D.E. of Empathy Mobile" - haha!! We have no idea what this is or what it means... but it was so funny and random!There were definitely some funny clothing things that made me laugh.... these boys shorts for example... the 80s are totally coming back... yikes!This lady's hat definitely made me smile :)This made me laugh too :) The bag of popcorn seeds said: "100% Whole Grain"... haha! Yes, it is a whole grain - duh! haha! it made me laugh :)This one was crazy to me!! So many people use the ER as a doctor's office because of insurance (or lack of it), that there is always a long wait at the Emergency Room. There were signs all over the interstate that said how long the wait was at their ER... that was crazy!Veggies in America tend to be MUCH bigger - this red onion was so big to me!!This one made me laugh :) We were up in Tennessee at my grandmother's house and we were trying to clean some things out. Adam and my dad decided to tackle the deep freezer.... they found some funny things. This one was the funniest to me... Some shredded zucchini from 1978!!!!!!! That's the year I was born!! haha! Hilarious! We kept betting each other to eat some but nobody was brave enough :) haha! I love funny things :)

Fun post! I remember taking a picture with a giant red onion too. I think they must be the most shockingly big veggies over here. :)

Awesome 1978!!! LOL!! That van is hilarious yet scary all at the same time...any conspiracy theories?? That lady had some serious bling on that hat but she wore it well!
Ummm. Glad you didn't try those veggies. That's from before I was born...Archie likes the retro shorts. I think he's more of a 70s guy. He prefers his 24 mo. shorts because he doesn't want them to touch his knees...HAHA!

1978! That wins.
The Zucchini is HILARIOUS! I'm sure my grandmother has hidden treasures like that in her deep freezer as well :)

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

Protesting

There's some political stuff going on in our city (and now the country) right now. People are peacefully fighting against corruption. It's been very interesting to follow. Tonight there was some protesting in our neighborhood. Here are some more protesting pictures. There will probably be more protesting to come... we'll see what happens!

Funny Things - Random :)

Here's a few random funny things ;) One thing that drives a lot of people crazy is honking! There are things that drive me crazy (like people urinating on the sidewalks - yuck!) but thankfully honking is not one of them because we hear it pretty much 24/7. We saw this poster the other day (below) and thought it was funny... BUT not as funny as the Hindi poster. The Hindi poster pretty much said that 'Honking is bad for your health' - haha ! Horns are actually a pretty necessary part of driving here. You don't really look behind you when you drive (most people either don't use their side mirrors, don't have side mirrors, or just have them folded in). When you drive, you just drive forward and you honk at the person in front of you to let them know that you're there - simple right? Sure, it's a little noisy, but you never have to look behind you :) If you go to that company's website it says: "Have patience at the traffic signals, let the signal t...
