Hey, happy Friday.
Welcome to Father’s Day weekend. It will be a bittersweet celebration for me, my sister and my mom as it will be the first time my big daddy DW will be absent. Nevertheless, we will honor him as we have done in previous years. I plan on cooking his favorite garlic burger with crispy Lay’s chips and potato salad because that’s his jam. I will also be celebrating with my youngest daughter Smudge her dad/my husband playing a round of golf (as long as it doesn’t rain) and whatever else the two of them want to do. This is for the boys!
But before we start cooking, let’s take a look at this week’s list of Friday favorites. let’s go.
