The Buckets by Greg Cravens for February 06, 2023

Yeah, suck it up, kid. Be glad your parents can still afford to eat out occasionally. :P :P :P

At least tell me there are crayons and a placemat to color on

I remember at that age a good restaurant would be McDonalds.

P. J. Piehole’s, it ain’t…☺

My wife made baked macaroni & cheese, with homemade macaroni & 4 kinds of cheeses.

The kids wouldn’t eat it because it didn’t taste like Kraft.

Yeah, in a nice restaurant he won’t be able to put his elbows on the table.

Grampa would take us to nice restaurants when we were little. And, we (all 4 of us ) behaved perfectly for him. He would often get the waitstaff to show us the kitchen, by opening the door between the dining room and kitchen, if we were really good. Diners around us would often tell grampa he had the best grandkids, and give each of us a dime. Big money for kids in the 60s.

I’m pretty sure Eddie would have known what he was in for when they left the house—by the way his parents were dressed.
