CALABASH TEA & TONIC: SPICE BLEND

Spice blend

Does dad love to cook? Check out the unique spices from Calabash Tea & Tonic is the perfect Father’s Day gift! Each has been carefully designed or curated by Sunyatta Amen, inspired by her Syrian-Jamaican/Cuban family’s spice buying adventures. They all look delicious, but I think my husband would love the Spell on You Creole Seasoning and Jamaican Jerk Seasonings best.

ROAMING ROOSTER: CHICKEN DINNER

Roaming Rooster

I love to cook, and takeout is a pretty rare treat for my family. When we do order, my husband’s one requirement is that we’re ordering something we can’t cook at home. Fried chicken fits the bill! Roaming Rooster is offering its famous fried chicken for pickup and delivery, and it would definitely be a hit meal on Father’s Day (or any other day)!

One of my favorite things about Mother’s Day is the card my children give me, so I always look for a good one for my husband when Father’s Day comes around. Siyo Boutique has a great selection of cards for dads that are perfect for the holiday. I love her hand lettering and sense of humor, and I know any of these would bring a smile to any dad’s face.
