June 2011 Iron Foodee Challenge

[Fuzzy]

Father's Day is a celebration of fathers inaugurated in the early twentieth century to complement Mother's Day in celebrating fatherhood and male parenting. It is also celebrated to honor and commemorate our forefathers. Father's Day is celebrated on a variety of dates worldwide and typically involves gift-giving, special dinners to fathers, and family-oriented activities.

This month's Iron Foodee Challenge is your Dad's (or nearest equivalent) favorite dish. Anything goes, though I would prefer it be the main course, side, or dessert prepared for him on Father's Day (or nearest equivalent, ie. birthday)
