For little girls, there's nobody like dad.

Some foods just go together. I guess I like pinto beans, corn bread, and onions because it was one of my dad's favorites. I remember him sitting at the head of the table, eating them. As you might guess, they're one of my favorite foods today.

That reminds me...I guess that's also why I love carrots. When I was 10 or 11 years old, the doctor recommended I eat them, so my dad planted two rows of carrots in the garden. We'd go out when he was home, and he'd ask me if I wanted a carrot. Then he'd pull one up, wipe the dirt off, and I'd eat it right there. So many things remind me of him. I guess it's true the old saying: "For all little girls, there's nobody like their dad."
