Daddy's Girl




So, some of my co-workers like to tease me that I am a Daddy's Girl.... well - IT'S TRUE. I totally am. I'm so grateful that in recent years, I've been able to spend Father's day with my Dad! My Dad moved overseas when I was 13 and would only come back to visit every August or September so, in those days, Father's Day usually included a phone call and e-card and no actual observance of the holiday!

SO, today, I made my Dad a special dinner including bbq chicken, potatoes au gratin (I made a roux for the first time - barefoot contessa eat your heart out) and steamed asparagus. I also got him these lovely cupcakes from "Sweet Stuff" my faaaaaavourite cupcake place in Dubai and a nice little card. All in all, it was a good day! Happy Father's Day Daddy, even though you know nothing about this blog (and never will!)
