Before Charlotte was born, the members of my book club gave us Richard Scarry's Biggest Word Book Ever! as a shower gift. Last year Char really got into it, literally. The book's over two feet tall, and the 14 pages are packed with cartoons and their definitions.
Char would get pretty excited when she could locate an item that you asked her to find. Since I'm a meat guy, I liked having her search for the hot dog car.
"Here's hot dog car!"
Last Sunday, as we pulled into in Hy-Vee's parking lot, I was surprised to see the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile parked in front of the store. But I was nowhere near as surprised as Charlotte, "Heeeey, it's the Hotdog Car! Look Dad, it's the Hotdog Car!"
Despite the bitting wind, we spent several minutes admiring the vehicle and its testament to the beauty of processed meat. I've seen the Wienermobile before, but seeing the vehicle through two-year-old eyes was pretty cool.

PS. Now we have to find a life-size pickle car.
