We've developed a new system in our house. A point system. Do something helpful or better yet without being asked and you earn some points. Volunteering to feed the dogs, clear the table whatever - all point earners. Playing together without fighting - more points. The winner gets this fancy plastic wine goblet and gets to choose the breakfast, lunch and dinner on their certain day along with a bonus. One week it's a family outing, the next it's a five dollar target gift card, the next something entirely different. It's been working like a charm. Bad behavior gets points taken away. Just the threat makes them freak out now. They are loving this meal choice thing.

What does this have to do with a giant grilled chicken? Why, I thought you'd never ask. You didn't ask? Too bad I'm answering anyway. It's my son's dinner choice. Beer butt chicken. Lisa posted about it the other day, as she hadn't heard of it and I must say, I highly recommend trying it. A very yummy outcome. Posted by Hello
