I don't know why it took me so long to notice


I've been shopping at this grocery store since we got here. No excuse, really, for me not to have seen it sooner.
Sorry it's not the clearest pic, I was trying to be sneaky.

  2. Exactly. People mispronounce it as a rule, but it just shouldn't be hanging up at the fancy grocery in six inch letters! Hope they didn't pay by the letter...

  4. No no, I doubt that would get it changed and I don't want to be "that uppity California girl who corrected them."

    I have a 1994 edition of a Merriam-Webster pocket dictionary that lists sherbet as a drink of sweetened diluted fruit juice & sherbert as a frozen dessert of juice & other ingredients.
