The family and I went to Outback Steakhouse in Pinole last night. The money came from some American Express rewards that my dad had earned. So yeah, my dad paid. He always got great pleasure from paying the check. I’ve got his black billfold in my nightstand, the billfold he always held in his jacket breast pocket. We toasted him heartily for the meal. He would have loved going out to dinner with us all last night. I miss him very much.

At desert, Abigail said that her favorite sauces were raspberry and chocolate and she wanted them on her cheesecake. I choked up as, of course, raspberry and chocolate was my dad’s favorite as well.
