On the 4th anniversary...

...of my Dad's death...we are remembering him with a family tradition of having take out Chinese food. How often did we have Chinese food in our family??? TONS! Back in the 60s, Dad would travel from Marshfield to Braintree and get take out from Braintree 5 Corners. His dad had Chinese food at our home for the first time and enjoyed it so much that in future years, we'd visit Grampe in Cranston and have Chinese take out with his sisters Laura and Gabe. As time went on, Chinese restaurants opened closer to Marshfield, with favorites being a place in Green Harbor (the name escapes me...) and Bejing House in Norwell. Many times, we'd visit my parents and would end up calling in a huge order for our family to enjoy. I will always treasure the memories of my Dad driving to Attleboro from the Cape (after Mom passed) to visit Katy and I during the day...and us going to the Golden Panda in N.Attleboro for their buffet. It was a tradition that even Katy remembers to this day. We had some great talks during those lunches and I feel so thankful that we had those times together. In closing...I'll share a few pics from 'the Little Book of Cauchons (I can't seem to straighten out the Cape picture...but it was taken at Dad's 75th birthday celebration):'
