GRANPA LOVED TO COOK FOR THE GRANDCHILDREN

 As we approach one year since Adolph died, the grandchildren often talk about Granpa's cooking.

He would make pancakes on a sleepover.

Sauce and fresh egg noodle for fettucine or spaghetti.

His lasagna was so delicious. Not just for the grandchildren but for special occasions or a treat for someone who was ill.

So to those other Dads and Granpas that love to cook, this is your day.

A MEMORIAL PLAQUE FOR GRANPA


 Covid meant no service and hard to honour Adolph.

So a plaque on a bench in the park where the grandchildren played with him and still go when visiting Nana helped to create a memorial spot.

GRANPA ALWAYS LOVED BIRTHDAY CAKES

 Special occasions like birthdays warrant birthday cakes.

A granddaughter turns 16 so of course a special birthday cake for her.

Goodies from family. Youngest granddaughter Allegra bought special cupcakes for her cousin.


Wonderful cake with very sweet icing.

A small celebration due to COVID restrictions.

Fun can be had in small doses. 

And Granpa always liked to celebrate!!

LIKE FATHER LIKE DAUGHTERS

 Adolph loved to cook. Now Sonya has picked up the torch of trying new dishes.

I had the benefit of a barbecue at Natasha's home Saturday. Then some meals Sunday by delivery by Sonya.

Cooking for one is mundane. So one take out meal once or twice a month helps too.

Joining up with family under safe public health protocols supports a positive meal time.
