men's corner: it's all about the "sweet" tie...

father's day is slowly approaching...are you leaning towards a tie for dad? i have to say...that was not the usual gift i gave my dad...although it seems to be the one a lot of people gravitate to...

matt...over at tiepedia sent me this post on "tie" birthday cakes...i posted pics of my favorite two...but take a look at the rest...pretty creative...but more then that...check out matt's blog...he is a self-proclaimed "obsessed with ties" kind of guy...how many of those are around? personally...i think that is pretty fabulous...

here is his snipet on "not your ordinary father's day ties"

It may surprise some of you to hear what I am about to say, but it must be said. Not all guys want a tie on Father's Day. GASP! I know, I know, it sounds crazy... and I certainly am not one of those guys, but apparently it's true.

Listen to what Joseph Hurtado has to say, "there are only two types of men: those who hate ties, and those who grudgingly accept them as part of the job."

Blasphemy as far as I am concerned, but if you're Mrs. Hurtado you may want to think twice about getting Joseph a tie for Father's Day. How about baking him a delicious necktie cake instead? I don't think many men could resist that. Here are some sweet examples for you to consider! (Congrats to the cake artists who created these!)

thanks for sharing this matt! and happy father's day to you!
