[blparent] boy or girl?

[Veronica Smith]

I went to Toys R Us yesterday to get a birthday gift for my friend's little
boy.  He turned 3 yesterday.  I was going to get him a truck, car or
Starwars type toy.  I came upon a backpack with McDonald play food.  It was
so cute and they were having a sale, if you buy 2 items from this brand, you
get the third item free.  So with the bag of food, I also got him a red
frying pan with fake eggs, bacon,  and other breakfast items.  My daughter
really liked the little pan and asked if she could have the free one.  Her
frying pan, blue, came with chicken, steak, peas, cabbage, strawberry ice
cream, pie and a spatula.  I can't wait to give Eric his gift.  I started
wondering after I bought it, "is it appropriate for little boys?"  then
decided, "yes, boys need to learn to cook as well." V
