in sharing here you’ve truly touched me and i am inspired to heed your advice with those i love.
your father was lucky to have you in his life, and just from the tone of this post, just from the vibe you share with us all here, i’m certain he knew he was loved.
thank you so much for sharing your beautiful perspective so eloquently here.

This is the first time I’m reading your blog (having stumbled this way after a glowing review from Bazu at Where’s the Revolution) and I know I’ve stepped in the room at a very personal and emotional moment, but rather than slink away, I wanted to offer my empathy and commend your bravery and wisdom in seeking to share the emotional weight of this sad loss. It’s a strange serendipity–I just wrote last night about loss in my own food blog and wondered, “is this the right place for these thoughts?” I think that food blogging, especially veg blogging, is bizarrely intimate, even when it doesn’t expressly seems so. We share something really important about what we believe, the labor that we do, the way we share, how we care–all that with food. It seems to me then that this is the perfect place to share and connect with others over all elements of your life.
Sending you my best, Emilie.

I am absolutely SPEECHLESS. You haven’t talked much about dad’s death(to me) and I agree with your loving internet friends. Your dad did and still loves you very much and I’m sure he is extremely proud of you. And thank you for your beautiful words….it means alot to me and is helping with the healing process, for all of us. THANK YOU!!
I love you very much!

Thank you, and I’ll be thinking of you.

I truly feel in my heart that those who pass know in their hearts the love and memories we have with them. I also believe that they are always with us. Go ahead and share you memories with your dad, he hears them and from what you said I am sure he had a deep love for you. He will always be in your heart.
