Get Your Grub On This Father's Day Weekend

No wonder why Father's Day is in June, it's all about barbecues and grilling! This Sunday we're celebrating Father's Day and thanking our dad's for being our everyday superman. So why not celebrate dad's special day with some big boy eats?

My uncle's favorite food is steak. His idea of vegetables is potato of any kind - mashed, baked, or in chip form. This weekend I know for sure we're probably going to have steak fro breakfast, lunch and dinner. Though if you want dad to relax this weekend but still get him excited for some serious eats, take him to these restaurants as a treat:

Hooters: Dad's can order 10 wings and get 10 free on Sunday

Shoney's: When Dad orders an entree, he receives a free fudge cake!

Spaghetti Warehouse: if Dad downloads the coupon on Spaghetti Warehouse's website, he receives a free spaghetti or lasagna entree on Father's Day.

Grille 700 at Baltimore Marriott Waterfront: free domestic drafts for Dad all day Sunday.

Many other steakhouses, sports grilles and bars will most likely have Father's Day specials like a free appetizer, discounted beer and entree's and more!

Christmas in June?

There's a rumor out there that today, June 5, is National Gingerbread day. Yeah, you read it correctly, gingerbread. You know, like those yummy gingerbread people cookies you like to munch on over the holidays.

Usually during the holidays, the atmosphere is so jolly and cheery. Apparently, the Foodie council people (not really an actual thing... unless it is and I don't know yet!) felt like giving us a super holiday in the middle of the year. So why not, Gingerbread day in June? Maybe it's to remind us that Christmas is in six months, or maybe it's to remind us to always be in a jolly mood, regardless of the season. Either way, I think we should celebrate National Gingerbread Day by whipping up a gingerbread family, gingerbread loaf, and any other tasty holiday favorites!

Happy six months until the Holidays :)
