What a great day.. we get to celebrate the wonderful men in our lives! A special, "Happy Father's Day" to all the fathers, fathers-to-be, grandfathers, husbands, uncles, brothers.. did I miss anyone?? You are the best, the world would not be the same without your caring, protecting, supporting, providing, and love. Is there anything better than a hug from a strong, whiskery, caring man?
It's been said time and time again that the way to a man's heart is through his tummy, so why not try it this Father's Day. Bake something yummy for your father. One of my dad's favorite foods is strawberry-rhubarb pie. Try it on your dad- bake away...
