It's here again: Father's Day. If you're father is anything like mine, you'll be stressing out-- as I am-- trying to find the perfect way to honor him on Sunday. Since I feel completely inadequate when it comes to holiday fanfare, I've turned to others for ideas about how to honor the man who is partially responsible for my existence. Here's some of the ideas friends and coworkers have given me:
1. Take Dad on a scavenger hunt to his favorite fishing hole or brunch spot.
2. Collectively "roast" him: that is, record a bunch of friends and family members as they recollect about Dad, quote Dad-isms, reenact Dad (mis)adventures, etc. Then present the product to Dad on his special day.
3. Make a pinata filled with pictures of Dad through the ages, golf balls, his favorite candy, coupons for ice cream cones, and whatever else you think will make Dad happy.
4. Build a birdhouse in his honor. Um, right.
5. Consider making him a special dad-themed treat, such as the "Want Some Mower Cupcake" shown above. Here's a link to that recipe, which comes from the website Family Fun: http://jas.familyfun.go.com/recipefinder/display?id=52174
Alright, kids: have fun!
