Little chicken

September is National Chicken Month. So I sent Bubby a chicken.

I originally planned to mail him the standard rubber chicken, which would be kind of funny in a weird, what-the-hell-is-Grandma-thinking kind of way. But those, apparently, are not intended for children under the age of three.

So I gifted him with a Fisher-Price Shake 'N Go Chicken.

Bubby wasn't too impressed.

That's okay. There's always an opportunity to razzle and dazzle him in October -- which is National Raptor Month ... Squirrel Awareness Month ... Go Hog Wild - Eat Country Ham Month ... Liver Awareness Month ... . The options are endless!

Be afraid prepared, Bubby, be very afraid prepared!*

 

(*When this phrase popped into my head, I wondered where it came from. Do you know? It's the tagline from the 1986 version of "The Fly.")
