Today Sunday 19th June 2022 here in the UK and many other countries we celebrate Father's Day. It is usually held on the third Sunday of June and is a day to honour fathers and father figures, such as grandfathers and fathers-in-law. Many people make a special effort to visit their fathers or to send them a card or gifts. More information can be read hereIf you live in America it was back on June 19, 1910 that Father’s Day was founded, in Spokane, Washington at the YMCA by Sonora Smart Dodd to honour her father, Civil War veteran William Jackson Smart, for all his efforts as a single parent raising his six children. According to Hallmark Fathers Day is the fourth largest card sending occasion. More information can be read here
In our house cards and gifts are given, some arrived early by post yesterday ready for Eddie to open ... and we have been fortunate to see family members both yesterday and today, a lovely family time.
Wherever you may live we wish all who will be celebrating this day a happy day.
If you can smell a wonderful aroma wafting from your computer screen it will be the Roast Chicken cooking, everyone's favourite meal 😋

ReplyDeleteWe'll be celebrating Fathers Day with our family tomorrow (Sunday) with our usual Domino game which has been a tradition for many years. Of course there will be more food than on a usual Sunday and if we're lucky we may even see some sunshine.

ReplyDeleteThat would be a perfect meal for Fathers Day
ReplyDeleteHappy Father's Day to Edie and to all those celebrating.

ReplyDeleteI have one daughter only and she lives in Ottawa. She called me to wish me Happy Father's Day. It was no different from any other phone call other than she said the words, "Happy Father's Day."
ReplyDeleteHappy Father's Day! That roast chicken looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteHappy Father’s Day to Eddie!
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful way to acknowledge fathers day!! i think roast chicken this way is my favorite meal. but we get them at costco for 5 bucks and that makes it hard to buy a chicken for 12 dollars and then have to run the oven to cook it!!!
ReplyDeleteI Hope Eddie had a very Happy Father's Day! We enjoyed a wonderful outdoor brunch with our family.
ReplyDeleteOwwww…now I’m am hungry to see all those delicious food…..I am going to sleep and tomorrow I started with yoghurt and fruit and granola….hahahaha love happy week Ria and Leaf 🍀🐾💗🍀
ReplyDeleteYay for Dad's! :-)
ReplyDeletelol, in Sweden we have Fathers day in November :)
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a nice Father's day. All our Father's have passed away and our one daughter lives 14 hour drive from us, so we had a talk on the phone with her.
ReplyDeleteEspero que lo pasaran muy bien. En España, el día del padre es el 19 de marzo. El pollo asado me gusta mucho. Besos.
ReplyDeleteWe had a good one. The little one spoiled her daddy and we went to Sealife to see the fishes!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad Eddie had a lovely Father's Day. I hope both of you are celebrated every day!
