So I am at Bed, Bath, and Beyond looking for things on clearance for the bedroom, the bathroom, and the beyondroom when I get a smoke signal notifying me of a BBQ. Sounds good but the boys are sooooo random about their food choices. I ask Colin what he wants to eat and he says "Sausage."
Um ok that was pretty cool. I ask Nicholas what he wants and he says "Sausage daddy." Then Colin chimes in with "Daaaaaaddy I hungeeeee!!! Sausage please."
Ok it appears as though the boys want sausage. BBQ Time!! So I follow the smoke message to Gabe's Lazy Eyed BBQ Pit in Friendswood, otherwise known as GabeandAmanda's house.

We arrive and the pit is in full cooking action. Roasted corn and boudain have just come off the pit so I clearly arrived at the right time.

We go into the house and Nicholas rolls up to the breakfast bar and is ready to grub. His boudain is cut up by the co-owner (give you a guess which one did that) and he doesn't waste any time eating half of it in a blink of an eye. I complain to management that there are no high chairs at the Lazy Eye, so I have to hold Colin while feeding him the boudain. He has a bite then it's "daddy bite" and I get the fork shoved into my pie hole. I don't mind because it's really amazingly good and by the time I look up 2 huge links are almost gone.
For you parents out there, it's now time to do the "Kids see candy so how do I bargain with them" dance. I tell Nicholas if he finishes this small piece he can have 1 candy. He comes back with, "But daddy, I'm gonna throw up if I eat more. I just want the candy." Really? REALLY??? Nice try bubba.
"If you're about to throw up, then you will throw up if you eat that candy so I will eat it for you." A deep sigh is followed with, "Fine daddy I will just eat this now." Yeah PUNK that's what I thought. I'm not gonna be outwitted by a 5 year old...all the time.
Next it's time to dance with Colin. He wants to see the ducks in the backyard, so I tell him 2 more bites and we will see the ducks. DEAL. Daddy wins again.

As they finish their bribe bites, ribs come off the grill. Anyone who knows me knows I love ribs. These suckers looked good too...and they tasted even better!! So soft, moist, and bursting with flavor with every bite. The ribs have just the right amount of smokiness to make them historically delicious.

Finally the boys wear me down so we go and visit the ducks. The boys loved it and we had a great time. The only thing I missed was the BBQ Chikenthatgotrapedbyabeercan. That's because the person that made my To-Go plates forgot to put some in there. I am promised some at my next visit. That better happen or I will turn my semi-potty trained children loose in their establishment. No threats or anything...I'm just saying...
If you ever get a chance to go to the Lazy Eye, I highly recommend it. I would just watch out for the angry woman who cleans the floor. She kept trying to pass the broom off to me, my kids, and the dogs!![]()
