Has anyone heard of a Whisky Pie?

My Dad used to "threaten" us with a Wisky Pie when he came home from work with a five o'clock shaddow. It meant rubbing his bristly face against ours, all done in fun, an excuse for a chase and a cuddle.

I always thought it was a thing rather than something Dad made up, but I mentioned it in passing when DP was in need of a shave and he was very confused.

My dad used to call it 'being wiskered' - loved it!

This is adorable.

My dad also used to do this although I don’t think we had a name for it.

My dad also used to give us “a big squash” which was what he called a hug 🥰
