I thought there would be a hedgehog

Grace in small things

1. Orange juice. I've had a bit of a sore throat the last two days, and I brought a half gallon of OJ with me to work to nip it in the bud.
2. My son's cough did not appear at all in the night. Yay!
3. Continuing to be gainfully employed, as the news reports, again, thousands more jobs lost today. Michigan's unemployment rate is over 10% now. Sigh.
4. Weekend is close.
5. Relaxing evening last night, after a bit of a challenging week

Sonic opened a location here within the past month or so. Neither hubby nor I have ever had Sonic, and while we were pretty sure we weren't missing anything phenomenal, we decided to try it. Plus, our son loves the opportunity to eat in the car, and we only do that about twice a year, so off we went for our first Sonic Adventure.

Hubby ordered a grilled chicken sandwich, I ordered some sort of breakfast sandwich, our son ordered a grilled cheese kids meal with string cheese and milk (he likes his dairy products), and we also ordered some onion rings and a sprite.

The person brought us the food. He handed us two bags, a cup containing Sprite, and a bottle of milk. He walked away, and we began to take the food out of the bag. There were onion rings, two sandwiches with fried chicken strips on them, a double cheeseburger and some cheese fries. So all that was right was the drinks and the onion rings. We flagged the person down, and he went back and discovered they had put our food on the wrong tray. I didn't figure he would be able to serve the food they had given us, since we had touched it, but I figured he would at least take it back. He told us to keep it. So, I ate my sandwich, hubby ate his, our son ate half of his grilled cheese, between the three of us, we ate about half the order of onion rings that we actually ordered, and brought home: 2 fried chicken strip sandwiches, a double cheeseburger, an order and a half of onion rings, cheese fries, half a grilled cheese and a string cheese. While we certainly got our money's worth, since we left with more food as leftovers than we had actually ordered in the first place, I certainly hope they don't make that mistake very often. It could get quite expensive for them.

Incidentally, the onion rings tasted like french toast to me. Hubby said it had a distinct vanilla taste. Perhaps they need different oil with which to fry onion rings and french toast sticks? They weren't unpleasant, but if given the choice, I would pass on the vanilla taste in the onion rings.
