My little ham of a child, Milesy, turned six years old today. For this precious birthday, I let him pick his favorite lunch spot - and of course, we headed straight for the golden arches. (Yes, we watched the "Supersize Me" movie at least five times - I know, I know.)
Alas, all things in moderation - and so both boys ordered the dreaded Chicken McNuggets. According to the movie, these gut bombs are made entirely from the breast meat of excessively-aged chickens that are no longer viable for anything else. All of this served up with a side of crisp, salty fries!
Minutes later, this healthful decadence came together with a germ-encrusted finale - crawling through McDonald's PlayLand for hours. Yes, that bacteria-ridden maze of tubes and slides that my friend Jody jokingly said, "is cleaned once a year, whether it needs it or not." Joy! Life is good - at least for a six year old!
