Today is Eric's birthday...he's the big "44" this year! What to you get the guy that has everything; lovely wife, beautiful children, great health, and a wealth of happiness? It also makes it difficult to get him a gift because Father's Day was a few weeks ago.
So, after some conferencing with Gabby and Sinobia, we decided on a few simple things that he has mentioned more than once he wanted...an herb garden for his fabulous cooking and a rice cooker. I headed over to Gethsemane Garden Center to select the right herbs for his garden. I decided on a window box for them, so he could place them in the kitchen window to grow and have easy access to them while he is cooking.
We usually bake Eric a German Chocolate cake for his birthday every year. It's always made with extra love because we know it's his favorite. This year he decided he wanted a key-lime pie for his birthday. I've never made a key-lime pie, but I was definitely up for the challenge. One quick trip to Jewel, limes in hand and one birthday key-lime pie for Daddy Eric!
Yummy stuff, not bad for the first time.
Happy Birthday Daddy Eric!
