This year’s Father’s Day baked good is NOT as pretty as last year’s, I’ll just say that right off.

My 2nd helping – and a new experiment in lighting food – computer monitor light. I think good north window daylight still wins.
This year I was not trying to get the dessert baked in time to go hang out on the Terrace – instead, the cobbler was the main course for breakfast, a lighter version of our normal Sunday brunch, because the honored dad wants to be to taken to Lombardino’s for dinner. We had cobbler, fruit, a few strips of bacon, and some sausages. And the dinner out tonight’s going to fill in as a not-graduation dinner for our Japanese student. She not-graduated yesterday. In contrast to the AFS students we’ve had before, she did not get to walk, wear cap & gown, or be in the picture – she had to watch from the sidelines with us parents. I bought her a 2013 commemorative tassel, though. The honored dad got a tube of fancy shaving cream, from me, and a Starbucks card, from his kid.
