Sunday Randomness #19: McDonalds Rebuild part 12

 Right side of drive-thru menu as of June 30, 2012  Big Mac meal is $5.25 and just the sandwich is $3.65

 We got a chicken McNugget happy meal, chicken wrap, strawberry banana smoothie  and

 a two cheeseburger meal, a big mac meal and a wild berry smoothie

It's been fun and interesting to watch them rebuild this McDonald's from the ground up over the last few months.  I just wanted to see if they would really be open by June (as advertised) and they did it. We went and tried it out but I admit we're not frequent customers of McDonald's or any fast food place or restaurant for that matter. 

(For dinner tonight we had baked top round steak, wilted spinach, imitation red lobster cheddar bay biscuits and mashed potatoes-we try to make homemade food when possible.  For dessert we're eating leftover cookies made by hedgehog: peanut butter/honey cookies and chocolate chip/coconut cookies. )

 South side planting bushes while inside they must be working on refrigeration

Almost all the construction evidence is  gone-but there's that lone blue wheel barrow off to the right
