Yummy sounding ...

Must try that ...

Family were here today for the 100 Anniversary of my Dad’s b rth,,,July 30, 1908..

He died at age 85, but he taught me so much as I was growing up....

It’s partly his fault my Christianity is straight...

I baked a Leg of Lamb, (well done, he was British) with gravy, mint sauce, potatoes and peas, and made a trifle ..his favorite dessert...

:)

LOL, I went to Publix today. It's the only store in the area that has lamb . . . sometimes. Pork and chicken are popular here. Well, they had one leg left and since I haven't had lamb in such a long time, I bought it. And because I didn't have enough room in the freezer, I cooked it. Took off the bone and stuffed it with onions, garlic and fresh rosemary from the garden. Oh, the house smelled so good as it roasted! There's enough left over that I won't cook the Butt 'til Monday.

It's great that your family gets together to honor your dad. My dad's birthday was July 31, 1907 - he was a Brit too.

I'll always mention to the grandkids that it's "so and so's" birthday but we never have a party. Maybe I'll have to change tradition around here.
