Today I smoked a Chicken and pork loin...When I pulled them off the smoker and started pulling the meat off and Cayden asked me what I was doing...I told him I was pulling the meat of the Chicken, and he asked if it was thanksgiving....THANKSGIVING??? I asked...He said yes we only have turkey on thanksgiving...I explained to him that this was a chicken and then the questions started coming....Where is its head? Is that his butt? What is the red stuff? Where is its legs? ect...ect.
Whole Chicken $3.00
Pork Loin $4.00
Rice a Roni $2.00
Corn on the cob $3.00
Feed a family of 6.....$12.00
6 stomachs full and asking for more.....priceless
It reminds me that you do not have to have bells and whistles to show that you love someone...It doesn't take the most expensive meal to put a smile on a child's face...
Is this the problem we face today? Do we lavish our kids with expensive gifts in order to buy their happiness? Have we forgotten that all it takes is a $3.00 chicken and some good laughs in order to show them happiness? All I know is for $2 a piece we had a great dinner sitting around the table talking about the best parts of our day...Simple
