National Hot Dog Day
What would National Hot Day be without a little post from me? I went back and forth on what to write about today, and then it hit me. Who doesn't want some fun-albeit-useless hot dog facts? I know I'll be enjoying a Chicago Dog (or two) today!

I feel like hot dogs being the first food eaten on the moon is totally appropriate. Cause you know, America and stuff. Also, I loooove burned hotdogs. Is that weird? Mmmm
ReplyDeleteBurned hot dogs are the ONLY way to eat them!! I always made my family leave mine on the grill growing up. They'd be done eating, and I'd still be waiting by the grill for mine to turn the darkest colored black.
ReplyDeleteWoot! Definitely making hot dogs for dinner tonight! Happy National Hot Dog Day!
