7:56 amBig Mac, Fillet of Fish
w00t! My first video blog up and live. Check ‘er out:
The words, in case it sounded a bit garbled:
Big Mac, Fillet of Fish,
Quarter-pounder, French Fries,
Icy Coke, Thick Shake
Sundaes, and Apple Pies.
You deserve a break today,
so get up, get out,
and get away
to McDonald’s.
And the dish ran away with the spoon.
–ps: Note the polar bear fleece zip-up pajamas that Zoe decided to wear to bed last night. fyi- It never got below about 78 degrees last night. She woke up not wearing them…

Yay! Your first video blog! It was awesome. I loved doing those hand slappy thingies back in the day. You guys are too cute!

This is so weird. I hadn’t thought about “Big Mac, Fillet of Fish” for years but on 7.7.07, my whole family was at my Grandma’s for a Christmas in July themed reunion (most of our in-laws don’t celebrate Christmas now so we all could make it. Which I guess is the point.) In the middle of this hot, festive Saturday, my brother, who is your brother’s age and a father of two, asks me to come out into the yard to do something with him. Something he didn’t want our male cousins or uncles to see. He wanted me to do the “Big Mac, Fillet of Fish” paddy cake with him, which I of course taught him and made him, in lieu of a girl to play with, do all the time. I was shocked we both remembered it, and tickled he wanted to do it with me now, secretly, under the apple tree. And then, what do I find today, but you and your wee one performing it on the internet. How bizarre. She is super cute by the way!

@Kerri- Weird! I hadn’t thought about it in years either and then a few months ago Zoe asked me if I knew a rhyme called “Miss Mary Mack”. Not only did I know the words to it, but I also knew some hand slaps to go with it. She ate it up! I started teaching her as many of them as I remembered (including Big Mac), and she thinks I’m cool. 5 year olds are easy to wow.

I don’t know what scares me more: the way you remember it all, the ‘hot’ jammies or McDonalds.
But you both are so darling. Thanks for sharing.
