Dear McDonalds,

I never thought I'd be writing you a thank you letter. Maybe I would have when I was 3 and you had the barbie happy meals, they made my 3 year old day, but I wasn't the greatest writer at that point, hence no thank you note.

But now as a 34 week pregnant woman, I wish to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your strawberry-banana smoothies. With morning sickness returning full force for the past few weeks, there is often times nothing that appeals more, or that I can manage to keep down, than your strawberry-banana smoothies.


They're cold, creamy, help mitigate the occasional heart burn, and are even semi-nutritious.

They're a godsend.

Thank you for your 24 hour drive-thru which enables my husband to come get them for me at any hour.

So for all the grief you get about making America fat, I wanted to let you know you did something right introducing your smoothies to your menu. I will be forever grateful.

When our boy is old enough, we'll stop by for a happy meal.

Thanks again,

Julia
