Father's Day

I already wrote a post about my magnificent mother, but I am the luckiest girl in the world because I also have the world’s best dad! 

He is without a doubt the kindest, hardest working, salt of the earth guy you will ever have the pleasure of knowing.  My brothers and I were so fortunate to be raised by this man. 

Both of my brothers are now dads and it is clear to see they learned from the best, because they are also amazing fathers.  It is so wonderful to see them with their children.

Not only is my father a great dad, he is pretty much the best grandpa in the world!

I can’t wait to spend this Father’s Day weekend with my dad, and my brother Jay and his family.  The only thing that would improve the weekend would be to have my other brother and his family with us!  No doubt there will be some yummy meals served.  Below are some manly recipes for the dads in your life.

Buffalo Chicken Dip – The Perfect Pairing for this recipe is boys, so you know dad will love it!

Onion Jam – The manliest jam on earth.  It even includes bacon!  Serve this jam with crackers or over flank steak for a great main dish.

 

Slow Cooker Beef Short Ribs – You can start this meal in the slow cooker in the morning and have fun all day long while it cooks.

 

Not Your Standard Potato Salad – Bacon + cheese + spicy potatoes = Happy dad.

 

Blueberry Crisp – I suppose this is not particularly manly, but it is really good.

 

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads in my life!  Love you!
