Transcript

My kids ask for hot pockets for dinner, so naturally I made them cheese instead of a grilled cheese cheeseburger. Because I refuse to let my kids buy into something than lava. Back in my day, most kids washed out with soap. My mom and just skipped the soap and just handed my brother and I hot pockets straight out the microwave and called it a learning experience. We didn't have gentle parenting. We had soap, or if you had mom, a wooden spoon straight out of a pot of boiling water and you didn't cry about it. You just took the hit and kept it moving. The one of the best burgers I've ever had.
