I finally took the family out to the Smashburger location near home.  We drive by it every morning when I take the kids to pre-school, so my son asks about it every day. 

Dunno if it was because I was dying of hunger, but my burger was really good.  Only thing I didn't like was the skinny little shoestring fries.  They tasted okay (espec. the olive oil & rosemary ones), but they're just annoying to eat.

My two-year old daughter still refuses to eat beef, which worries me.

I know.  She's half-Argentine, for crying out loud :(

Eh it is hard for little kids to chew beef.  I wouldn't worry too much.

Take that, my vegan ex-girlfriend!

Take what?  That's silly.  The advent of artificial meat is the best news a vegetarian could ever receive.  Except two chicks at one time.

I've never done Sloppy Joes for them, but I've been meaning to.  My brothers didn't like them so much when we were kids, but I sure did.

Ugh I hated those. I never wanted foods that were messy (or anything messy period). :blush:
