Fathers' Day kudos...

 Happy Fathers' Day to all of you who have fathers, are fathers, or have happy memories of your fathers.  A good father is a lasting blessing. 

We have had good Father's Day fun.  My spouse's youngest son and family picked up dinner from Salvatore's and brought it to us, and we had a lovely evening together.

Earlier in the evening my spouse and I helped to serve supper at the rescue mission.  This made me really appreciate all the good fathers in my life even more.  

My spouse's oldest son and wife, who live some distance away, sent us their traditional package of Omaha Steaks, so delicious.  This year I want to say kudos to the Omaha Steak people because of their new packaging.  

Instead of the traditional styrofoam  container, this year their packaging was completely recyclable.  The outer box was cardboard, lined with a recyclable insulating inner layer.  Instead of dry ice, there were cold packs in biodegradable bags.  The material for the cold packs was just as cold and effective as dry ice, but, the directions said, when you let the bags thaw the liquid content can be used as plant food.  Better and better.  The whole thing was like the gift that keeps on giving.  

A great Father's Day all around, and I think my wonder spouse enjoyed it too.
