Father’s Day is just 10 days away, how will you be spoiling your dad, brother, uncle, husband, grandparents or other men in your life this year? This year, find something to make your dad feel special and important. Whether he loves to grill,spends his days in the workshop, or is a wizard in the kitchen youcan find the perfect gift for dad this year at Searsto give him a makeover he deserves that fits his personality.
My dad is the most generous, giving person I know. One of the way he openly gives and shows his big heart is feeding people. Food is the key to the heart, after all. Whenever he has someone over visit his home, he jumps up and tries to find something he can feed them. He eagerly reaches into the fridge and will offer and share anything he can find from drinks, snacks, a full meal and of course treats!
I wanted to treat him with a brand new fridge this Father’s Day! My parents fridge was overheating and their ice maker had been broken repeatedly for years, it was clearly hanging on the edge at the end of it’s life. When I surprised my dad with the news of what I was planning, he was totally shocked, and so incredibly excited!
After spoiling my dad to a new fridge, he turned it around on me and made hisabsolutely favorite pie to share! This pie has become a family tradition, and a recipe we hold dear. Every Christmas, my parents will whip up a dozen or so of this amazing frozen chocolate pie recipe and give out a pie to their friends as a gift. Everyone loves this creamy, decadent, chocolate mousse like pie!
