sad, sad sign of the times


I do my own ballet with the poverty line, so I know that a trip to the market is getting more and more limiting. But when your local grocery store uses this sticker as a marketing device, that's a sad reminder of what your neighbors are facing as they walk up and down the aisles.

  1. Sad indeed.

    We don't have food stamps in the Netherlands, but there are several food banks, mostly in the bigger cities.

    (We haven't had the need to visit one yet, mostly because there is a really cheap farmer/greengrocer nearby.)
