Today I buried my Dad

Today April 7th. I bury my Dad in Volant, PA in the Cemetery he managed is his last days of his life. My Dad was a servant to many in his church. Today we celebrate his internal life in heaven and reflect on the good parts of his life on this earth. As I reflect I know that life is not easy and that many choices and we make on our journey do not always take us on the path we expected. If I have learned anything form watching my Dad is that the path less traveled is much harder to walk but clearly worth it.

The fall season

Fall is a great time of year. Poached pears are magic. The idea of spring sweetened by the spice of fall garnished with the chill of winter ice cream. Chef Mark Mattern
