Glory's First Happy Meal

It was another sweltering afternoon. Crazy hot and humid.Munch, Glory and I were out buying sweet potatoes and as we walked past McD, the air-conditioned environment and pictures of ice-cream proved too enticing. We ducked in for a quick snack and to enjoy the cool air. 

I put Glory into the red baby-chair, Munch got us a Milo McFlurry (not fantastic. stick to

 the Oreo McFlurry), and we happily tucked in. One mouth for Munch, one mouth for me. Aaahhhh.... shiokness!

We didn't realize how wrong it looked till Glory opened her mouth wide and said "Aaah!"

Oops. There we were, 2 adults, enjoying our ice cream when the kid has nothing, not even water.

With all seriousness, she looked at us, then at the ice-cream, and went "Aaah!" again, holding her mouth open in anticipation.

Now we were feeling seriously paiseh.

We quickly scanned the menu for salt-free and sugar-free food, and discovered that we could get her a corn-in-a-cup! And that's how Glory got her first Happy Meal.

Happy Glory with remnants of her First Happy Meal.

ok, we admit. Mama drank the Milo, Papa ate the cheeseburger. All Glory had was the corn. Some of it.

All gone!!

As all kids know, the major part of a Happy Meal is the toy.

The toy that came with her meal was a spherical thingy which opens up to reveal a mirror.

And when you press a button, the mirror lights up and reveals some dinosaur-like creature.

It was all lost on Glory though. 

She immediately proceeded to break the toy in half...

And gleefully did a chicken dance...

=) It was a Happy Meal alright.
