One of my Favorite Things

"Cake and Shake" dessert at mk restaurant in Chicago, on Franklin.  It's a mini vanilla malt and three layer piece of chocolate cake with buttercream frosting.  

Last seen: January 21st, on its way down into my stomach.  Thanks Stacy for joining me!

Go there.  Sit in the bar area if you don't want to commit to a reservation.  Lots of street parking on Franklin, can't go wrong with anything on the dessert menu.  Or the regular menu, for that matter.

A Chuckle from Sam

This happened last week when Scott's parent's were babysitting.  Thank goodness we already have him going in pee wee sports...


Dad: "So Sam did you play basketball with Grandpa and Grandma today?"

Sam: "Yes, I beat them."

Dad: "Well were you a good boy and did you play nice?"

Sam: "Yes, I started at 40 and they started at 0."

Dad: "That doesn't seem fair."

Sam:  "Well I score some baskets when they weren't playing...some double baskets..."



Love the competitive spirit, my son, but we need to work on your honesty.
