The Low Carb Diabetic: Happy Fathers Day 2024

Today Sunday 16th June 2024 here in the UK, and many other countries, we celebrate Father’s Day. It is usually held on the third Sunday of June and is a day to honour fathers and father figures, such as grandfathers and fathers-in-law. Many people make a special effort to visit their fathers or to send them a card or gifts. More information can be read hereIf you live in America it was back on June 19, 1910 that Father’s Day was founded, in Spokane, Washington at the YMCA by Sonora Smart Dodd to honour her father, Civil War veteran William Jackson Smart, for all his efforts as a single parent raising his six children. According to Hallmark Fathers Day is the fourth largest card sending occasion.

Although it’s not always possible to see all family members, those we can’t are just a ‘phone call away. 

Wherever you may live we wish all who will be celebrating this day a happy day.

If you can smell a wonderful aroma wafting from your computer screen it could well be the bacon sizzling in the pan, a great way to start Father’s Day 😋
