An Irish Father's Blessing

May the Father of us all bless our oul' fellas,
wherever they might be, at home in dear old Ireland,
or across the shining sea.  In Heaven with the angels
or on earth still with us,
may God be good to the dear old dad, 
the one we love so much.

 

 





 

 

 

 

 

        

 

 

 

 

 

When we think of the word hero, we think of the many important people in our lives.  My dad comes to mind as my hero.  Fathers hold a special place in the family.  We learn many valuable lessons from our fathers that teach us the meaning of character, strength and honor.  Because of their unconditional love and guidance we will always hold a special place in our hearts to honor them, especially on Father’s Day!

A Fine Meal for DAD  

Grilled Rib Eye Steak with Guinness Marinade

Ingredients for 1 serving:
1 Rib eye steak (12 ounce)
2 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon shallots
1 tablespoon Vidalia onion
1/4 teaspoon Tarragon fresh
1/4 teaspoon parsley
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 ounces Guinness room temperature
1 ounce Tamari soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon black pepper coarse grind
1/8 teaspoon salt

Finely chop garlic, shallot and onion and place in a small bowl. Finely chop parsley and tarragon and add to the bowl.

Add the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, Guinness, Tamari and seasonings then mix well to combine. Let stand for 30 minutes to blend flavors.

Place the rib eye in the marinade and make sure it is well coated. Cover the bowl and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or overnight if being used for a picnic entree the following day.

Pre heat the grill and then cook the rib eye.

Place the remaining marinade in a small saucepan on the grill and reduce it for one or two minutes until slightly thickened. Add more Guinness to the marinade at this stage if desired. Pour over the rib eye and serve.
This marinade recipe is enough for one steak. Multiply as necessary.

Sharing Memories of Dad  

My favorite childhood memory of dad was when it snowed he would tie all our sleds together (all the neighborhood kids) and pull us up and down the street. J

I am blessed to have a Dad who is always there for me.  No matter what happens in my life, I can always count on him.   From fixing a leaky faucet, to playing and watching, his grandchildren at a baseball game, he always is supporting us.  Every Sunday Dad will come over for donuts and coffee and to play with his grandchildren.  It is a wonderful feeling to have someone that I can call Dad who touches so many people with his kindness and character! 

My Dad….John Comerford aka  “Poppie”
One of my earliest and fondest memories is of my Dad getting on the living room floor & playing  the rolling log.  My sisters and I would have would have to try to “hold on” as he rolled around the floor.  My Mom was already worried we’d get hurt…..but we LOVED  it.!  He seemed like a giant to us the.  Love you Pop
