This first selection I like to call "Things in the supermarket."
"Pet thing"? I think it's a leash.
I laughed my head off when I saw this stupid elephant hood for a cat. Can you imagine trying to actually put this on a cat?
Snake oil? At least they're honest. I have a feeling this is an English colloqualism that just doesn't translate.
I know I've put the horniness cream on here before - but it's still funny.
Here's a picture of our favorite sign in Cairo. KC noticed it first, and I totally didn't get it because I kept trying to read the Arabic (which is the title of a popular song).
I went to a very chic salon in Dokki with some friends a few months ago. It's in a Victoria's- Secret-pink villa and the owner is French.

The haircut was fine, but here's the horror of letting the Egyptian guy style your hair without understanding what he's offered. I looked like a '50s pinup. My friends were first taken aback, then amused. This picture is after I spent half an hour smushing down the top with my palms. Yikes.
Something I saw at a party, but didn't try (double-weird in a Muslim country):
And finally, not from my cell phone, but here's India's baby picture. She's the one on the right.
