Dads have come a long way in recent years.  Studies suggest that they help more around the home and with the children than ever before.  Despite this, our appreciation/respect for what they do may or may not have improved accordingly.

This Father’s Day we set out to make certain Tim had no doubt how much we love a appreciate everything he does for our family.  How better to do that than through food, glorious food?

For starters, the kids scoured Pinterest for just the right candy bar poster.  

We kicked off the morning with a nutritious breakfast of (yep! They’re homemade!) Boston Cream Donuts.

I could have stopped there but since dinner has to get on the table, why not make it a special request from our special guy?  Louisiana Chicken Pasta it was.  Seriously delish.  (Though, as a side note, I would recommend pounding the chicken breasts super thin so you don’t have to deep-fry them to the point of looking burnt…the chicken tasted divine but didn’t make for an amazing display). 

All that(and a Sunday afternoon nap) made for one happy daddy.  That night Tim thanked me for my hard work and thoughtfulness and remarked that he needed to up his game on making me feel awesome on Mother’s Day.  Cha-Ching!
