Father's Day

It has been a LONG time since I celebrated Father's Day, so I had a lot of fun making a big deal out of it for Dave. One, well two, of the highlights of the day was hearing from both of his kids (neither of which had to be reminded!).

The other highlight was taking him out for lunch. I'd been trying for a week to figure out what he wanted to do special for Father's Day - have me fix him a favorite meal or go out to eat at a favorite restaurant. Yesterday, he finally decided on the latter. His restaurant of choice - Joe's Crab Shack.

We get to the restaurant today and the wait staff was already hyper in only ways that Joe's Crab Shack staff can be (the wait staff are primarily high school and college age). Once we're seated, we already know what we want to eat/what we're going to share - - overly crab stuffed, stuffed mushrooms to start with. Then, we order a bucket/pail of three different types of crab: king, snow & dungeness; which definitely was plenty to share. All I can say is yum, yum, yum. For dessert, we finished off with splitting a Sea Turtle Sundae, i.e., chocolate cake covered by vanilla ice cream with caramel topping.

One delicious meal...Happy Father's Day, Dave!!!
