My kids (the readers, anyway) have come to a realization that many of the things we have are made in China. I've heard several little "Hey, THIS is made in China, too!" over the last couple weeks. They think it makes their stuff exotic. Or, as Kate said, "They have lots of stuff to make stuff in China." Even her American girl stuff is...made in China.
Yesterday Dallin wanted to make his favorite lunch: Ramen Noodles. He is getting pretty good at making them himself, so I was observing the cooking from across the kitchen. As he was waiting for the water to boil, he kept saying how much he LOVED Ramen noodles and how he wished he could eat them EVERYday. Then, he asked, "Where do Ramen Noodles come from?" I quickly replied, "China. They eat them all the time in China."
But, then I turned the package over to see:
Made in U.S.A.
stamped on the back.
Hmmm.

Hahahahaha! That's too funny! Adam ate them every day in South Korea, so maybe Dallin would be a good candidate for a mission there. Ben loves them too, so they could be companions. :)
LOL...reminds me when I took the kids to my home town ice cream shop back in Cali. It is an Irish decorated shop run by a Chinese man who speaks Spanish. Hows that for American?
seriously, funny! who would've thought?
