Liz: Because the chicken was on vacation...See, that's funny because the joke is usually about chickens...

My Kid Gets Meta-Jokes!
So, if you read my wife's blog, you know that Liz now understands sarcasm. If you know me, you know I was proud of my girl. Well, tonight at dinner:

The Bulldog
Today, we went to the Expressway Pit Beef stand for lunch for a bring-back. (Not quite the same as reach-around - ask your mom.) Expressway Pit Beef is anything but an express - it took an hour to place the order and receive our food. But, oh my lord was it good. I had the bulldog and an order of sweet potato fries. Too much. Why you ask? The bulldog is about a foot-long sausage (hot or mild) wrapped in pit beef with cheese, onions, and peppers. It was brutally delicious. I'm now trying in vain to recover in time for hot dog night at the kids' school.

My Favorite Picture
So, I'm coaching tee ball now, and on Saturday, we had the baseball parade to kick off the season. Shannon snapped this picture of Sam, which may well be my favorite shot of him.

Kid Beer
First, a bit of advice for other fathers. If you are drinking beer, your toddler will be fascinated with what you are drinking from the bottle. Now, we know beer is bitter, and most kids don't like bitter things. Not my son. I gave him a sip, and he immediately demanded more. And no, he was not content to drink water out of an empty bottle. In fact, he became quite belligerent. Since that time, he has continued to try to get more beer. My wife and I have been trying to dissuade him. It is even harder when you have to thwart your friends' efforts to get him beer. But, the solution currently seems to be to give him "kid beer". As long as it comes in a nice glass bottle, he is perfectly happy with his kid beer.
Koolickles
Thanks to Filly for the recipe for koolickles (but no thanks for just bringing me some from Mississippi). These are the cherry ones. (No, there are no others.)
Here's are some more of my photos of koolickles.
