I haven't made butter tarts in almost 2 years. Last time I made them was for Dad, not long before he passed away. I wasn't able to bring myself to make them before last night. It felt like the right time to make some.
Grief is a funny thing....how it hits, how a person moves through until it hits hard again.
I miss Dad terribly and I always will. Especially when I make butter tarts. I miss his reviews of them, I miss him telling me they're "not bad kid, but you should make more to practise" with a smirk on his face...lol.
I know he would have liked these tarts....so we'll remember him, talk about him and have a laugh (maybe shed a tear or two) as we enjoy these this weekend.
Love you Dad, miss you ❤️❤️
