Happy Mother's Day
to you and you and, yes, you. Never mind that it was yesterday.
Did the requisite "cook dinner for my wife" thing yesterday. Also never mind that I do the cooking 60% of the time these days. She still enjoyed it. We had lemon salmon baked in foil served with dill sauce, lemon teriyaki rice (just a wee bit of teriyaki sauce and even less lemon juice - most of the lemon flavor was from the zest which I rescued from the ends of the lemon that I sliced for the salmon), salad and then Gain Five Pounds Just Looking At It Brownies for dessert. Since yesterday was a special day, I made the brownies with Ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate instead of your usual Hershey's unsweetened. No, you weren't invited, sorry.
As for my dear mother...well, I wished her a Happy Mother's Day over the phone on Thursday. (She called.) Haven't given her a card yet seeing as how she's currently in transit somewhere and I have no idea where to send the card. She's supposed to set foot in ScribbleSilent land sometime around June 1st at which date I'll give her the card. (My folks do the Travel Around The Country In A Bus Masquerading As A RV thing. Yes, even now in the Time Of High Gas Prices.)
To all you other mothers out there, hope you had a good day. That goes for you, too, PBW. I don't care what you say, there were two pretty ladies in that picture on your blog, not just one. So just hush. ;)
