Thanks for recognizing the Scrambled Dog! I didn't realize it was a regional (aka Unheard Of) specialty until I left the South and the Columbus area. A minor correction, it has to be topped w/shredded cheddar! Local variations have the hot dog chopped up, and sometimes the bun is sliced as well. In high school (many moons ago), I worked at Tavern on the Square (across from Kirven's, for you locals), and we had dishes I thought (at the time) were created just for Scrambled Dogs...I guess they were just oblong relish dishes? We've finally relocated back to the South, and have the Varsity, but it just can't top a Scrambled Dog...
Congratulations!! He's beautiful. What a perfect Christmas present. My advice--enjoy every moment. It is such a true cliche that they "grow up too fast". My little man is only 2 1/2 and it seems like yesterday we were celebrating his 1st Christmas. Echoing Ryan--it really does only get better. My practical advice? If he's colicky-don't kill him, yourself or your wife until he's at least 12 weeks...they really do outgrow it :-) The 1st smile (between 7-10 weeks) really does make it all worth while! Merry Christmas!!
I'd try it, but skip the duck in a turduken, and in this case, the goose as well. The greasy meat of a duck weirds me out.
