How to have a quick and easy not-really-Chick-Fil-A-at-all-but-kind-of dinner on a budget:

1 bag frozen waffle fries.

1 bag frozen chicken patties.

Hamburger buns. Must be buttered and toasted.

Packets of Chick-Fil-A sauce in the bottom of your purse.

Okay, it won’t blow your mind or anything, but maybe allow a few more bucks for Christmas shopping.

Oh and I DID slice up cucumber for a veg.

And while I’m thinking about being a parent, let me just say without reservation that it’s the hardest job ever. If you happen to disagree, then I need to be the one to inform you that your kids are not normal.

Lots of love to all my parent friends out there in the struggle. Grace be with you.
