Dad and his grandson, SuperPizzaBoy in Idaho last year.
I think that this is his high school graduation pic.
He and his roommate pretending to study. I like the Vargas print on the wall. I don’t know whose teddy bear that is.
Happy Father’s Day Gramps!
We Okies are very proud of Ree Drummond, the Pioneer Woman. Go check out her fabulous blog. She also has a cookbook. It is not very low fat but it is good. Just ask Bobby Flay who got his butt kicked in his good natured Thanksgiving dinner throwdown with Ms. Drummond (see link at bottom of post.)
My dad, Gramps, visited us over Thanksgiving. His favorite dish is chicken fried steak. So Sweetie decided that she was going to make Gramps an Okie style CFS dinner with all the trimmings.
So we got the cookbook out.
Sweetie got her game face on. Notice the glass of wine she didn’t quite hide. I really don’t think that PW would disapprove. Hey coking has to be fun.
Sweetie started with her own dishes. Mashed potatoes and purple hull peas.
I even got recruited.
I’m usually in charge of anything involving cast iron.
Sweetie took over though on the gravy. Lots of whisking involved there.
Ya gotta get the gravy right. Sweetie did a great job.
The end result. Its like, cmon Yogi, lets eat!! Gramps looks pretty happy with the result.
