What should I treat myself to?

The real villain is looking at you.  The last hero was just not true.  If everything works out in the end.  It's because all things make amends.

Do you want to come with me tomorrow to do largemouth bass fishing? There's this nice lake about an hour and 17 minutes from St. Paul that has quite a bit of bass.

You can show me how to catch them, too. Whenever I'm there, I see them swimming around but I don't quite know how to hook them.

A long time ago, I took my daughter out fishing. We were at Lake Norman, NC, under this quiet bridge. It was pretty early, we stopped at IHOP for a quick breakfast. When we got there there was only two other couples. Bass was dancing atop the water, right away my daughter spotted them. I picked my favorite lure, bright green, hooked it and cast it out. Jerk my line a little, sway it left and right to trick the fish. Not long, we got our first bass and a few more a hour later.

Good story, Bro. Gotta love the top-water fights of those fish.

I would really love to.  But as I am really contemplating if I should cook a nice meal for my children on Father's day, my only day off.  My children really loves it when I have time to cook for them.  They always say, "Daddy you make the best food."  Which means a lot compared to taking them out to eat at some expensive buffet and it's only so so so.  Even thought the selection appears great and very appetizing.
