Happy Fathers Day to all the Cellar dads.

I hope you have been good fathers to all of your children that you know about.

I join in my congrats to all the Dads out there - have a great day.
We're going out for tapas (my treat) so I might take the camera (and therefore you) along. S'pose I'd better get in the shower...

Happy Father's Day to all you wonderful cellar dads!

classicman · 06-21-2009, 10:46 AM

That sounds really nice Jim. My kids are cooking on the BBQ - keepin it simple - burgers and dogs. We even splurged and bought some soda! Woo Hoo living on the edge over here.

morethanpretty · 06-21-2009, 11:05 AM

Holy crapp! thanks for the reminder. I better call my dad. He's in Florida right now, livin it up.

(I already got him 1 present and will have another for him when he gets home)

glatt · 06-21-2009, 11:57 AM

My daughter's birthday today, so I'm sharing it with her. Good Father's day present, actually, to be able to share the day with your kid.

Alluvial · 06-21-2009, 12:44 PM

My darling husband is still laying around in the bed. It's kind of cozy, working in the office next to the bedroom, listening to him snore.

Sundae · 06-21-2009, 02:36 PM

Here we go!

This is what we had:
Pan de Barra - Fresh bread served with an extra-virgin olive oil & balsamic vinegar dip (this counted as a starter, so is the only dish mostly eaten in the photo)
Paella Valenciana - Paella with chicken and mixed seafood
Albondigas a la Jardinera - Spanish-style beef meatballs, served in a tomato sauce
Pescado Blanco Frito - Deep-fried white fish, in a light and crispy batter, served with roasted garlic mayonnaise and fresh lemon
Alitas de Pollo - Marinated chicken wings
Gambas Pil Pil - King prawns, sizzling in a chilli-&-garlic-infused oil
Tortilla Espanola - Spanish-style omelette, with potato and onion
Patatas Bravas - Fried potato, with a spicy tomato sauce

It might not look like much, but we were all far too stuffed for dessert, or even really to have tea tonight. A good time was had by all. And I had fizzy water and left the 'rents the bottle of wine to share (and dad to have a pint of San Miguel). And it wasn't even a hard choice to make.

Trilby · 06-21-2009, 02:41 PM

it all looks so lovely! good for you!

I gave my dad a card and a Galileo thermomter (what can I get the man - he's 80!) and he didn't even say thanks.

oh well. we just don't like each other.

Shawnee123 · 06-21-2009, 05:48 PM

We got my dad a replacement Marine Corps flag...his was getting ratty. It was my brother's idea. I never can think of what to get him, he has everything. He liked it.

By definition a bunch of mother fuckers.

Even allowing a charitable interpertation of your use of the phrase "mother fuckers" as those who have sex with *A* mother (rather than their own mother, the usual interpretation), your claim is not entirely true.

While there is extensive overlap between the two sets, there are counter-examples both ways.
There are those who have fathered a child but never fucked a woman after she has been pregnant (rumour has it Elvis went this way).
There are those who have had sex with a mother, but who are not parents themselves.
Thus we can demonstrate referential independence between the two distinctions, and conclude that fatherhood and motherfuckerhood are conceptually orthogonal.
