Schoolwork-inspired hot dogs

2009 Week 33

Believe it or not, Caleb has never had hot dogs before. Yes, I have managed to keep this nutritionally deficient, horrible processed meat away from my firstborn for the past two and a half years. So why is he eating hot dogs now - for the first time ever?
This is why.

His schoolwork made us do it.

It had a page with a hot dog, for which he needed to draw ketchup, mustard, and relish... great if you know what a hot dog is, but you're kind of clueless if you don't.

So, his schoolwork inspired our hot dog lunch the next day.

Anything for the sake of education, right?


He was most fascinated with the idea that the meat is encircled by the bread.

Oh, and also that the meal included "Chips, Daddy!" -

with Mommy's permission, right at the dining table!

I figured, if we're going to be unhealthy, we might as well go all out!
