On the way home last night, I went through the drive-thru at Burger King, bought a dozen plain hamburgers. I went into the back door yelling HAMBURGER PICNIC ... Kevin, Jennifer and Jeffrey started jumping all around with excitment. Kevin is totally deaf now but he picked up the cue from the other two, knew something tasty was coming his way. I got their bowls and placed 4 burgers in each one. Sitting in a chair, I mashed the grease out of every burger with paper towels, then tore all the burgers into small pieces. The prep time always adds to the excitment because I continue to yell HAMBURGER PICNIC frequently. Heh Heh!! It is a family bonding thing. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their picnic. Kevin has a super wide head and tongue, I looked over at him and he had a little piece of hamburger on his head. My big Kevie eats with gusto! *laughing to self* Their little peepers were still glowing when we all went out back for awhile, then back inside and on to bed. I do picnics for them like this every once in a while. Other times it is Arby's roast beef sandwiches or chicken. I realize these picnics are not healthy for them but I don't do it often.
