So True
Tonight I was cooking up some burgers thinking I was giving the kids a big treat for dinner. Cheeseburgers at home? I thought I would bring them out to cheers.
Mackenzie was setting the table when she asked what we were eating.
"Cheeseburgers," I answered cheerfully.
"Oh," she said with no excitement in her voice. "You know...I just like McDonalds’ burgers better."
"You like McDonalds’ burgers better than mine?" I asked with a fake tone of hurt in my voice.
"Well...they are just so much more...you know...juicy."
"That's grease Mackenzie. It's not exactly good for you, you know," I answered back.
"Yeah, I know, but it tastes SO GOOD!"

Must have been something in the air today, because I was also craving a big fat McD burger ... even though reason tells me they are SO bad for me ...
You cook and cook and what's the point? :) My kids like Wendy's burgers.
I found your blog via "blackpurl". We lived in Augusta FOREVER before our move the the mountains.
Ouch...Mickie D's wins out for french fries in my house.
My kids had Burger King today. Thanks to their Grandma. I think homemade burgers are better, so I'm on your side.
I think the kids are more fond of the playgrounds than the food.
Melody, small world isn't it! Where abouts did you live in Augusta?
Isn't it funny what kids think taste good? It changes so much as we get older and realize that fat is, well, fat. :) But hey, who doesn't love a little, or a lot, of butter!
