Oh, you're far from the first. If you've never seen the Bill Cosby Chocolate Cake monologue, go now! I still walk around singing "Dad is great . . ." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRmN4KnfPxQ
When I was a kid, I had friends whose parents occasionally proclaimed it Ice Cream For Dinner And Early To Bed Night. Kids got ice cream for dinner at half-past six and went directly to their rooms thereafter, with instructions to brush their teeth, play or read quietly, and lights out at their regular bedtimes.
As a kid, I thought this was brilliant. As a parent, I think it even more brilliant. ::grin::
