i'm off to my brother's house. he e-mailed the family on august 31st {the three year mark of my dad passing} to invite us all over to make dinner and watch my dad's favorite comedies. one of the films we'll be watching is the great race {with natalie wood, tony curtis and jack lemmon}. it's such a funny movie, and it will be a joy to watch as we remember all of my dad's favorite parts. i've seen it at least a dozen times. {if you've never seen it, i recommend it!} perhaps we will also watch the bears first season game, too. can't wait—it should be a lot of fun!
we are going to make two big batches of paella. {the recipe is about five posts below this.} i hope it turns out as good as my first attempt at making it and does not disappoint.
it's a gorgeous fall-has-the-bluest-sky day here {even though it is not technically fall yet}. but the temps feel more like summer, and so they should, since there is still a week of summer left! it will be a great day for the hour drive to the city with the classical music station on.
happy sooc sunday. i'm hoping it's as beautiful of a day there as it is right here.

Oh how wonderful to remember you dad like this. Together with you family. Hope you have the best of times. Love this shot by the way.
I seriously LOVE fall. Just seeing this picture put a smile on my face. Hope your paella turned out great and that you had a good time with your family. hugs...
so good that you are all remembering your dad. the weather is summery here as well. good thing because the summer certainly lacked a few degrees of hot.
Sounds wonderful -- the memories, good food, the fall colors. I didn't think I'd be ready yet but I am! Ready for comfy sweaters and jeans, comforting warm dinners . . . Ah, enjoy!
