Here is your assignment if you choose to play along (cue the
Mission Impossible music, please!):
1) It's Father's Day in the USA on Sunday, so let's talk about our fathers.
2) What did your father really like to do in his work or spare time? Did he have hobbies, or a workshop, or did he like sports, or reading, or watching TV?
3) Tell us about it in your own blog post, in a comment on this post, or in a Facebook or Google+ post.
There were several things my father liked to do, especially
after he retired: gardening, cooking/grilling, and football watching. I wrote about his love of football in this
post.
In 1990, they had to move because of the freeway behind them
was expanding, so they bought the old Potter house across the street. This property
was larger and the backyard was nicely landscaped. My dad puttered around with
that and also grew a vegetable garden.
And then in the kitchen, he loved to create dishes from
either food from his garden or veggies from the store. He specialized in stirfrys.
He also loved inviting his family over for backyard fun. The patio
and pool was meant for entertaining and he took advantage of it.
Enjoying his backyard with family |
