Mondays with Martha - Father's Day

I'm still trying to get all caught up... The Eighties Skating Show is finally over so I guess it's time to start planning for next year.  But before I do that, I need to catch back up on all the other things that are going on in my life.  Soon I'll be back to normal... but until I am, I thought I'd do a little Monday's with Martha.  I mean who doesn't love Martha... and who doesn't need a little more of her in their life?!? 

Father's Day is now right around the corner so I figured I'd check out what Miss Martha had in mind for gifts for Dad.  Well... let's just say that I looked through the handmade crafts and the gifts and they all made me think...
"My dad wouldn't like any of these things... except maybe a few."  

There's this Canvas Tool bag.


Are you thinking what I'm thinking?  This bag looks extremely feminine.  My dad would never use this. 
No offense. 
But he sure would enjoy giving us a hard time for picking this one out for him!


Maybe if you're dad's an artist... I guess? But then wouldn't he probably already have these?  Right?
I don't know...







And Emeril's Red Marble Steaks.


All of which he probably would enjoy, but two will go away because they are food, one is a shaving set that is too fussy for my dad, and the other is an outdoor game set which is as close to perfect as they come!  My dad loves to be outside in the backyard hanging out (drinking a beer when he can) with family. 



So... is my dad really that unlike most dad's out there?  Would they love these items? Hate these items? 
You can see all of Martha's recommendations here. 

I love you Martha, but I think that most of these miss the mark :(
