What can the kids and I do to make the day special for them---and for their dad? Riverside, Calif. With the tragedy of September l 1 just nine months behind us, there are more Dads overseas than ever, which makes this an extra-special Father's Day to cele- brate. Here are just a few ways you can bring your family together---even it you're far apart: • Lights, cameras, action! Pick a theme such as "Why my dad's the best" or "What I like to do most with my dad" for your kids to create a photo scrapbook or video skit. You could show the kids going about their day from fixing Father's Day breakfast to being tucked into bed. Or do an activity that Dad loves " such as fishing or shooting hoops. Be sure to round up everyone for a family portrait. Include neighbors, other family members and pets in your "a-day-in-our-life" show. s Father's Day goodie box. Gather the kids to bake Dad's favorite cookies or bars. lnclude other good- ies such as zippered bags of home- made snack mix, packets of special instant coffees or cocoas and other nonperishable snacks and treats. Don't forget the "Happy Father's Day" letters and homemade cards! • Overseas Dads outing. Plan a picnic or other outing with other families who have dads overseas. During a quiet moment, ask the kids to tell what they like most about their dad and recall fun things they've done with him. • "Dad stories." Thumb through Dad's baby book and high school Fresh-Baked Bread: Splendid Smells In The Kitchen (NAPS)--One of the most enjoyable aromas to waft from the kitchen is that of fresh-baked bread. It's a scent that, for many people, tick- les the nostrils and sets the mouth to salivating. Fruit-filled breads are an increasingly popular varia- tion on the classic loaf. Not only do such ingredients as dates, figs and bananas lend a sweet flavor to each recipe, but they also provide health benefits. This easy-to-make loaf, which can be mixed by hand, bakes up moist and nutty. Mixing in Coca-Cola gives some added sweetness, plus a hint of caramel fla- vor. Try it for dessert or spread slices with cream cheese for delectable sandwiches.
