No McMuffins for Billy


Little Billy missed his morning McMuffin routine much more than he thought he would. Will he succumb to the power of the golden arches that loom on the horizon, or will he find the strength to persevere, and continue traveling across town for his 2-for-$2 McMuffins? Or perhaps, Billy will give up those McMuffins and stock up on grapefruits and melons .... because everyone knows that eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day will make you feel immensely better. Knowing that, however, does not always stop the urge for a little McMuffin and maybe a side order of hash browns ... and coffee. Who doesn't love the caffeine? The bigger question is: Can fruits and veggies ultimately make you strong enough to resist the glow of the golden arches? There is only one way to find out. Well, I left Billy in the ladies room on the counter at Yankee Clipper, which is probably an unlikely place for finding fruits and veggies, but what the heck? T'was an oddly fun night anyway. Like a step back in time. Way back. Old Fort Lauderdale. So, history, fruits and veggies and cocktails. And I never say the word t'was, but it seems appropriate now, so there it is. T'was. T'was the night before fruits and veggies ....

Yes indeed. Remember ... fruits and veggies ... five servings a day ... helps resist the temptation of the golden arches, at least most of the time. .... And the times you just can't resist eggs, bacon and muffins will be more deeply appreciated.
