What’s something about you that impresses your kids (or friends or family members) that isn’t actually something to be proud of? Tonight, we ate at burger place that offered one pound patties. Eating one got your picture on the wall. Eating three earned a place a full-size poster. My daughters pointed out that I could easily be up there on the wall of shame. They were right, but I couldn’t let them know that. I limited myself to a mere one massive burger. What’s your shameful skill? Sound off in the comments.
