Good for what ails ya...
Max has been sick with a high fever the past couple days. He's just coming out of it and getting interested in eating again.
We decided to take it easy, and as I was driving around I remember something that always seemed to go down well...
The Wendy's Frosty (with "nutrition" data).
mmmm.... Not that I don't enjoy the Arby's jamocha shake from my 15-year-old working the drivethu days.
But the Frosty's a classic, once-a-year splurge. This year, it was Max's turn to enjoy. He did!
Admittedly, it's all tainted by my growing disdain for the quality of product coming out of fast food these days, but I still managed to enjoy a few bites myself as Max wolfed the sugary Frosty down with amazing speed.
I won't go around saying it was a "treat" because it's hard to see fast food as a treat. It was, at the very least, an excusable lapse from good nutrition in favor of getting a few calories and some liquid into Maxwell's dehydrated body after a bout of 103.5F fever.
Mmmmm.... getting better never tasted so good!
