A good 3

The daily writing prompt wants to know – What are your family’s top 3 favorite meals?

I’m going to break this down a little differently.

My Better Half. I remember the first dinner she made me when we started dating. It was at her parents home. It made me feel special. She has always fixed a wonderful Sunday dinner. Every week there is something special. She is something special.

My Daughter. We meet after she gets off from her work as a teacher and have dinner together. Memories of driving to her college and sharing a meal. And her smile as we ate pizza on the upper deck of Tony’s overlooking the boardwalk and ocean.

My Son. Going to breakfast at the old diner after getting our haircuts when he was young. And now when we would meet on Sunday at my favorite rib place for lunch. It’s been a while since we’ve done that. Expanding families will do that to one’s time.

Bonus meal – Each week, well 90+% of the time, my 2 best friends and I gather for a meal, have a lot of laughs, blow off steam, go on about our jobs, talk about family and solve the worlds problems all in one evening. The Gang of Three Brothers.

My Favorite meals can’t be had without my Favorite Company Above, no matter what the dish. Thank you for sharing the food and good times.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
