Temptation Foiled Again & Again

Every time we get in the car to go somewhere, he begs me for this. Every time I'm getting in the car to go somewhere without him, he asks me for one. He is relentless in his pursuit of caffeine and carbonated goodness. Empty calories, I say. Too much sugar. No vitamins and minerals.

It's doesn't matter what I saw. He wants one. ALWAYS. How do I curb his desire? We have a rule: ONLY ON FRIDAYS. And, only ONE on that day. Yet, somehow, every now and then, one creeps in when it wasn't supposed to. I give in, I cave. I try, but I'm not perfect.

ONLY ON FRIDAYS.

Donny loves Dr Pepper.

My elderly father told me that HIS father bought stock in Dr Pepper back in the 1930's or '40s, so anytime he bought a soft drink, he bought Dr Pepper to help his dad's stock.

Too bad we don't still have that stock, huh?!

Then maybe it wouldn't ONLY BE ON FRIDAYS!

By the way, Dr Pepper was invented IN TEXAS!!
