I called my dad on the phone in the barn and asked him: “Do you want that free Bloomin’ Onion gift certificate still?”

Dad: “What? Yes, I still want it. That’s where your mother and I are going next. By the way, we went to Olive Garden last night and our server may stop today … nice young girl, gave her the address. She’s from Honduras or somewhere. Wants to see the farm.”

Me: “Okay, great. But you still want the certificate? You won’t waste it, will you?”

Dad: “What are you talking about? I’m not going to waste anything.”

Me: Well, come to the house and get it.”

So, my dad came to the house and I formally presented the certificate to him!

Once again, thank you Outback!
