When I cook certain foods, I think of dad. Dad always made some of the best food that I could remember eating. He made some of the best damn fish that I remember tasting, and honestly thanks to him I consider seafood as one of my favorite meals. One time after a fish fry, when I was being picked up to go home, he sent a ton of leftover fish home with us. I don't think that fish managed to get down the road from Lawson before it was gone. I remember one time when I was younger, he made one of the best stirfrys I had ever had. I was such a picky eater as a kid, and I believe that was one of the only few meals that got me to actually enjoy bell peppers, one of the few veggies I actually enjoy. To this day I still have no clue how he managed to make the most perfect fries, which is something im not the greatest at, and that I wished to have picked up from him. Dad used food as a way to show he cared, but that wasn't the only way he showed how he cared. I may not have made it easy for him at all, but he always did his best to make sure I knew how much he loved me. He would always call and text me, wanting to know how my day was, how I was doing, he wanted to tell how much he loved me. He kept on calling and texting, even if I didn't always answer, just wanting to let me know how much he loved me. I regret how stubborn I was back then, but I am so damn relieved that this past year I had started to spend time with him. When my Grandma died, I was devastated. She was one of the people that I had looked up too and I felt lost. I had known that her and dad were friends- even when I was being a stubborn teen, she always did her best to push me to keep in touch with dad. When she had passed, I called dad. I asked him to come to her funeral, and he did. He couldn't drive, and he told me himself that it wasn't really his thing to go to funerals- he didnt do well with them. Regardless of his reasons as to why he doesnt normally attend those kind of events, and even though he couldnt drive, he managed to get to the funeral to be with me. This passed summer , I spent time with him, and we had some pretty good times. We ate at Cattricks, we had a garage sale, I spent the night with him for the first time in years, I helped him unpack and organize his new apartment a bit. I know I rambled quite a bit, but I needed to put these memories somewhere. Blane showed alot of his love through food, but he also knew to scream it at the top of his lungs. I may have been to stubborn when I was younger, and I wasted alot of time we could have had together, but looking back now, Blane is my dad, and I would not trade him for another. He did the best he could for me, even if I didnt make it easy for him. I love him, and I will always miss him.
