It’s “National Hot Dog” and “Vanilla Ice Cream” Day

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

This is a day made just for kids. These two items permanently reside on Ben’s favorite food list, which I’m sure will make it onto today’s menu. Ben is currently “NPO”, meaning he cannot eat in the hours before his surgery. We are to check in at 12:30 PM today with surgery scheduled for 2:30 [...]

History was made [...]
