No it's not. This is about watching a fight. Go back to the other thread, please. Unless you've
got food and libations to share, and a comfortable chair or maybe a blanket from which to watch
the antics.

Miche arrives with a lawn chair, a bowl of popcorn and a pitcher of mint juleps.

Hi guys, got a space for me?

Barefoot Contessa is on, she is giving some kind of kiddie party, guess what she made for
dinner?

What else? Breaded and fried chicken strips.

Struck me as amusing. nancy

I'm watching it. Methinks if more parental units did this type of thing with their kids; The issue
of dining out would not be an issue. Naturally everything she is serving up is healthy <snort>

Michael <- watching all that sugar being pumped into those little bodies

I was going into sugar shock just watching the show! (laugh) Think they had enough candy?

I got the ABT's and some BBQ'ed ribs.

BOB and the thread you mentioned "ignored"

Come sit here, dear---and bring those ribs. What's an ABT? <Gives Miche an elbow away so BOB can
sit by ME!> Got any beer? Sam Adams Cherry Wheat preferred, Hon.

ABT's? You might *not* like the name...Atomic Buffalo Turds. Jalapeno peppers, de-seeded, stuffed
(usually with cream cheese and sausage) wrapped in bacon and grilled (yes, over a wood charcoal
fire). They are fantastic! and unfortunately, with today's jalapenos, not very hot.

Might bring the neighbor's home brewed beer if it's available. Miche can stay close by...plenty off
refreshmens for all.

BOB wondering how/why *this* thread drifted away from the intended topic so soon

What restaurants can do to cater to children thus encouraging parents to want to bring them

AND give them something to do while waiting. Restaurants that give kids some crayons and a paper
placemat to draw on have the right idea.

Oh dear God. Next the restaurant will have to provide a Day Care room for the wee ones 😉

When you look at the number of children killed or harmed by babysitters, that's not such a bad idea.
It would allow parents to dine out in relative peace as well as the other patrons of the restaurant.
(A soundproof room, one would hope.)

Do you have statistics on that? I though parents/step parents were the most deadly, with strangers
at the bottom of the list. If you are right, what is to keep the daycare person at the restaurant
from throttling Wee Harolde? blacksalt

Hmmm. Not a bad idea, but I'm afraid that will "impact" the bottom line.

Seriously, though - the types of restaurants where kids can be taken without remorse are the
inexpensive, noisy chains like Chevy's and Applebee's, ethnic reataurants - especially chinese or
mexican and your local mom & pop diner will probably be kid friendly too.

Practice safe eating - always use condiments

I LOVE that stuff. I'd drink it every night if I could afford it. I'd buy it by the case if that
would bring down the price. There's also Okanagan brand apple and pear cider available in Western
Canada. I've been known to bring back 6 packs in my carry-on luggage. (There's also a cherry and
other flavors, but only the apple and pear taste like the real fruit.)

Lindemans Peche or Framboise. Mmmmmmm...my all-time favorite beer. Problem is, it tastes so good, I
can't stop drinking it...

Oh and I had completely ignored that thread....got a good laugh reading parts of it though..thanks
for pointing it out.

tonight's din din for kids - the both are just getting over a tummy bug (lucky mommy me..maybe I
should send them out to eat to sit next to some of the folks on the thread?)

oatmeal - made from scratch on top of the stove, with just a touch of brown sugar to please there
taste buds and make it appealing enough to eat.

I, mommy, had some leftover homemade Thai curry (with chicken), most of the chicken was gone but
lots of mummy sauce and rice and potatos.

The dad is having left over burgers from last nights cookout.

Oh and i ate a papaya. didn't share it with anyone. :-))
