picture of a shopping cartMany years ago, my father was visiting America, from Europe, for the very first time.

He said he wanted to go with me to the supermarket, so I invited him along.

As he went up & down the aisles with me, at the local Giant Food Store, he constantly asked me questions about products he saw.

"Vas diss?? Powdered orange juice??" asked my dad.

I said, "Yeh, Dad. You just add a little water, and you have fresh orange juice."

A few minutes later, in a different aisle, dad blurted out, "Und vas dis?? Powdered milk?"

I said, "Yeah, Dad. You just add a little water, and you have fresh milk!"

A few minutes later, in a different aisle, my dad yelled out,

"Und give a look here!! Baby Powder!! Vat a country, vat a country!"
