Megan McKenna has given a sneak peek into a typical yet extremely lovely Friday night at home. The spotlight was on the cutest wallflower of her kid Landon and the scrumptious gourmet dish that was made from leftovers that night. In her post, McKenna shared, ‘I have a baby dragon & tonight we are eating whatever is in the fridge/freezer! (This is the best invention by the way… now Landon can be even more crazy around the house without me worrying) lol.’ The video that accompanied her post showed the little guy in a dragon backpack that was not only cute but also made to keep him safe and be easy for his mom to take him along to the gluten-free cooking night with fried chicken, a loaded sweet potato, and a homemade herbed yogurt dip.
The video was a showcase of the skill of making something special from the mundane and the simple. McKenna, who referred to herself as ‘the condiment queen’ and ‘the toppings queen,’ was very systematic in her food presentation. She peeled a sweet potato, roasted it and then coated it with a yogurt, garlic, chives, and dill mixture, and all the while she was wishing for honey to drizzle over it. Served with that was gluten-free fried chicken pizza and sweet potato fries, a meal that she called their ‘little cheat night’ but it still seemed healthy. In the background of the video, Landon was seen moving and playing in his dragon suit, providing a perfect funny yet heartwarming context to his mother’s culinary endeavors.
Her supporters were not slow to react and their reaction was absolutely overwhelming. The little dragon backpack grabbed the attention of many, already being considered adorable by some. One user commented, ‘Cuteness overload🔥such a smiley 👦 😍,’ which aptly captured the atmosphere of happiness surrounding Landon’s playful actions. Another one mentioned a similar case, ‘My daughter has a butterfly it is a life saver so cute!! X,’ which is a clear indication that such products very often make their way into the hearts of parents. The backpack took root with one user who stated, ‘Literally ordered one of these today 😍 but a turtle shell. I hope they work well ❤️.’
Megan’s cooking style as well as her baby gear got a lot of compliments. One of the followers joked, ‘Love your posts! Love Landon the dragon🐉 so cute! Could you tell us how you made the yoghurt dip please.’ McKenna’s very gluten-free and dairy-free way of looking at food was appreciated by many. One user said, ‘Tesco have some of the best GF and dairy free foods 👌🏽,’ while another sharing from personal experience said, ‘Loving all ur posts so inspirational Megan thank you. I’m in recovery from a 50 year hell of an Eating Disorder and now the ED goggles are off I’m trying so so many new foods and u inspire me.’
The easy-going and relatable mood of the video was a significant factor in its popularity. The keen viewers could find humor in McKenna’s using a baby spoon to stir up her dip. One viewer commented, ‘Love how you’re mixing it with a baby spoon! 😂’ to which McKenna jocularly replied in a sub-comment, ‘😂😂😂 it’s become the norm.’ Yet another person highlighted the messy side of parenting and wrote with humor, ‘Megan just standing there eating her dinner while Landon destroys the house in the background 😂.’
There were also a couple of queries regarding her living situation, a user wanted to know, ‘Are you still at your mums or back in Germany? x’ and another said, ‘Are you living in Germany? I’m confused.’ The latter incited a reply from a third user who commented, ‘she lives between both countries x,’ thus, giving a glimpse into McKenna’s current bi-continental lifestyle. This lifestyle was also highlighted in her reflections on Landon’s first birthday.
