Crappy Patties

Brandt loves Sponge Bob and against my better judgement, I finally let him start watching it several months ago. Up until then it had been banned in our house, but all his friends watch it and I didn't want him to be the weird kid that couldn't watch it. I watched it a couple of times and besides being annoying, there was really nothing he should not be watching.
For those of you lucky enough not to have seen this piece of animated genius, I'll summarize - Sponge Bob lives in a pineapple at the bottom of the ocean and works at the Crusty Crab where he makes crabby patties. They look something like hamburgers and he is the chief fry cook. I think that I am a little embarrassed to admit that I know all of this (of course I can tell you quite a bit about the Wonder Pets and Dora too).
Anyway, the kids favorite bathtub game right now is to play Sponge Bob. They pretend to work at the Crusty Crab and take each others orders and then make the food. Campbell always orders the same thing - 2 Crappy patties, french fries, a drink and a toe (toy). In her world all food should come with toys. I know that I shouldn't be letting her say crappy, but it is so cute, I just can't help it. Besides, it's Sponge Bob - they probably are crappy!
She probably shouldn't be watching 'Ponge Bob either (or so much tv period), but that's another story. And tv can be educational, do you know where red eyed tree frogs live or what spectacled bears eat? Diego can teach you!
