Why is she telling us this, you may be asking. Well, the first roll had pictures of kitchen utensils decorating it. The 6yo became quite fond of one I gave her at supper one night and has continued to keep the same one at her place at the table. The second roll has kitchen action words (ie, verbs!) written on it. When I began to read it with the girls, I noticed there were two and a half mistakes (the half is because the word in question can be a verb, but I don't know anyone who uses it as one, do you?).
Can you spot the mistakes?
Who's proofreading paper towel text these days, 'cause that seems like a job I could do from home!

Someone will be beet red about using marinade instead of marinate - they should have put their text through a grammar sieve, eh?
beet? marinade? I figured it out before I looked at the comments, btw. :)
printed overseas, no doubt about it!
oh, grate. someone beet me to it. that's the weigh it goes - you roll the dice and mix it up, take your cut and try and stay out of the stir. things will be better next season, though - i sieve very good times ahead.
