Father's Day is just around the corner and if you are looking for something to do for the special man in your life, I've got a simple entertaining idea that he is sure to love.

Afternoon tea is the perfect time to celebrate dad. When the sun is shining outside and the kids are playing, set up a simple dessert and coffee table outdoors.

Setting a table doesn't need to be expensive or elaborate. Bring pieces from all around your home outdoors. An eclectic mix gives your table personality, enhances your own individual style, and allows you an opportunity to use those pieces you may otherwise have stored away.

Do you tend to stress bake like me? I find that if I'm having a particularly stressful week I spend more time in the kitchen whipping up treats. I'm not sure whether I find baking therapeutic, if I'm craving something sweet, or if it's just that I'm avoiding what's bothering me. Or maybe all of the above. Regardless, my kids seem to benefit from me being stressed so I'm sure they aren't complaining.

Summer certainly adds to the stress levels around here; especially working full time from home and having the kids underfoot every day. It becomes a very fine balance of juggling work, while ensuring they are having fun, breaking up disagreements, and tackling my normal household chores.

And so I whip up fun treats, a lot. Because that always puts a smile on their faces and keeps them entertained for a little while, and with the revolving door of kids it's always nice to have something fun on hand to share.

These ice cream cakes are so easy to make and you need very few ingredients, especially if you tend to get a little lazy in the kitchen like me and use a box of cake mix instead of whipping up a cake from scratch.

We often have kids here after school and on weekends for play dates. The kids love getting together with the neighborhood kids to ride bikes or scooters, kick the soccer ball, watch a movie or play video games. Occasionally I put together an extra fun special treat for them to enjoy while they are playing.
