The Right Stuff for Dad

Bucket O' StuffGone are the days when gifts were simple.  For Dad, a tie.  A cardigan. A matchbox car.  Now it's all African safaris or fantasy baseball camp or a limited edition combination espresso maker/panini press.  But look, here's the thing:  dads like stuff.  Little stuff, big stuff, lots of stuff, buckets of stuff.   Could be a bunch of fishing stuff.   Some fixing-things stuff.  Maybe even some cool stuff from those infomercials on Sunday mornings.  A successful gift of stuff has one very important quality, though. Quantity.  You want Dad to be entertained looking through his stuff. You want to hear, "Look at this" and "How about that" and "I love this stuff."  Opening a gift of a tie takes about 20 seconds.  You're looking for a good five minutes or so.  Naturally, we're here to help.  Introducing the Bucket O' Stuff.  You've got your Grafton Maple Smoked Cheddar wheel, your Grafton Four Star Four-Year Old Cheddar bar, your box of Vermont Common Crackers, your jar of maple mustard, your hunk of Vermont Smoke & Cure smoked pepperoni, your Vermont-shaped cutting board, and of course, your slicer for cutting the cheese.  We're estimating about eight minutes of gift-giving, with another couple of minutes of jokes thrown in for good measure.

Ok, so here's the funny part: absolutely no one here at Grafton got the vague reference to a certain bodily function, even in a story about Dads.
