Dads Can be Tough...

...to buy for!!! At least my dad sure is!

If your dad is like mine then he has very specific tastes in which I know nothing about (my dad LOVES to fish) and if he needs or wants something he just buys it for himself. Therefore buying my dad a gift is almost impossible.

My dad doesn't wear ties, he doesn't go golfing, he doesn't read books much (unless it has to do with fishing), and he doesn't wear anything other than Wrangler jeans, work shirts, and Redwing boots.

My dad doesn't drink coffee other than the black, unflavored kind. He doesn't smoke cigars and he doesn't follow any sports team with much interest.

My dad is tough! On top of everything my dad can get all the pecans and homemade fudge he wants. It is handy for him since he owns the store!

But if your dad is as hard to buy for as my dad is then you might consider getting him some homemade fudge or candied or spiced pecans for Father's Day. Dads usually have plenty of knick knacks and all kinds of crazy ties so this year give him what he really wants...yummies for his tummy!

We have lots of great fudge flavors like Chocolate Pecan, Turtle, Butter Pecan, Tiger, Maple Nut, Plain Chocolate, Mint Chocolate, Dark Chocolate Pecan and even Sucrose Free Plain Chocolate and Chocolate Pecan for those dads on special diets. The Fudge Flavor of the Month is Orange Cream and it will definitely treat dad's taste buds right!!!

We also have candied/spiced pecans such as Chocolate, Dark Chocolate, Creamy White, Praline, Cinnamon, and Roasted and Salted. We have sugar free candied pecans as well. Our candied/spiced are sold in individual bags or we can make up a tin and fill it with up to three different flavors.

Stop by the Pecan Shed soon to find the perfect gift for dad! Father's Day is this Sunday so you had better hurry!!!
