Dad Sick of Ties? Buy him a Beer for Father's Day.

beerAlthough I haven't actually purchased any gifts for my father or my husband yet for Father's Day, I feel pretty sure that I won't be getting either one of them a tie this year. Anheuser-Busch has an idea. They want me to buy the special dads in my life a beer.

This is all part of Anheuser-Busch's "Here's to Beer" campaign. 

I have to say it's not a bad idea. My only reservations are 1) One beer? For Father's Day. I think my Dad/husband/Father-in-Law deserve more than a single beer for a whole year of fathering, and 2) The men in my life have selective tastes I can't see me buying them a Bud Light for a special occasion. I want to go at least to the Bass/Guinness/Harp level, maybe even a microbrew so that they know they are special to me.

If anyone out there is taking notes, I also accept beer for Mother's Day. I like pale ales.

LOL.  Funny posting.  Definitely think Dad/husband/Father-in-Law deserves at minimum a Bass/Guinness/Harp level type of beer!

My sister and I took that a step further one year and bought him all the stuff he needs to brew his own damn beer.

I broke my nose at the playground today. I also gave myself a concussion. The hardest thing to take, sitting there atop the annoyingly cheerful red and yellow play structure that did me in, was the image of my daughter -- laughing. She then clapped for
