A Yesterdog Night

My sister, Sue, and her girls came over on Friday. We spent the day playing, shopping, and making homemade pretzels. (Matt works hard to maintain favorite uncle status.) For supper we had our own Yesterdogs. For those unfamiliar with Yesterdog, let me fill you in. Yesterdog is a hot dog restaurant in Grand Rapids that serves dogs with various toppings. Since my sister's family lives closer to Lansing than GR, they have their own Yesterdog suppers at home. It's a big hit with them, so we decided to do it too. It's fun to get all the ingredients together and assemble dogs to our liking--of course, we have to follow the menu exactly! (We pulled it off the internet.) So even Matt eats his ultradog with mustard and pickles. It's a sight to behold. Our nieces LOVE seeing their uncle eat food he intensely dislikes. He made pretzel dough, so we got to roll our own dough into whatever shape we wanted and made our own pretzels. It was a fun day. It's fun to be able to see them often.
