Father's Day Dilemma

Father's day is upon us! Have I decided what to make for dessert tomorrow? Um, not exactly! I have been bouncing ideas back and forth. Father's day poses the biggest dessert dilemma for me each year. My husband vetoed a couple ideas I had earlier this week. Brad and his dad have nearly opposite taste buds when it comes to dessert. Since it's Father's day I always want to cater to my father-in-law's preferences. However, if I mention making the strawberry cake that my father-in-law loves, my husband snarls and responds with this, "I'll eat it to be nice but I won't like it." See what I'm up against folks! LOL!

Is my husband a bit of a picky eater? Let me say this...Cody or his human daddy...which is more picky? Cue the silence! Brad to me is hilarious, he must be told what certain things are before a party we're hosting begins otherwise he'll avoid it. That is unless it's super obvious what something is. For example he needs prior warning about dips, sauces, casseroles, lasagnas, and meatballs. He always wants to know the flavors and spices that went into stuff before guests arrive. He went through an entire Super Bowl party one year avoiding the meatballs I had made because he wasn't sure if they were made from turkey or beef and he couldn't get my attention to ask me since we had a house full of people. Here's the thing he likes turkey and beef. Definitely likes beef more but it's not like he doesn't like turkey so I'm still clueless why he feared the meatballs that particular year. He keeps me guessing! :)

I've been downright baffled before, because when we go to someone else's house he eats without questioning things. Oh but wait he has a reason for that...yes, I asked him once why he questions what I serve but then doesn't question what others serve at get-together's we go to? His answer, "I don't want to be rude so I eat whatever". Well that's a huge difference between him and Cody, no matter where Cody goes or whom offers the nibble of food to him, he's skeptical!

Okay time to get back to my dessert dilemma...cupcakes? pie? Half recipe of cupcakes and a pie? A pie and cookies? Cheesecake? See the dilemma! Too many choices!
