Beautiful piece with your dad. I really enjoyed reading it. It reminds me of the short story "In the Cemetery Where Al Jolson is Buried" by Amy Hempel

Love the idea of taking spices on vacation! I’m a huge fan of the team at https://www.surajspicesteas.com/ they’re always extremely helpful and supply delicious oolongs (and other teas!) as well as spices.
