Happy Mother's Day 2010

Happy Mothers Day to all mothers(The Nurturers) around the world!
My mom is an extra extra special person -- she almost raised both her kids single-handedly while dad had to come here for a better opportunity. She had to deal with a rebellious, defiant, problematic girl(Moi) and she did a great job in a "splendid, stubborn, silent and non-judgmental" way. In the end, I did turn out okay and plenty thanks to her.
If Mom was visiting this is what I would make for her -
Breakfast:
  • Freshly squeezed BloodRed Orange/ Ruby Red Grapefruit Juice
  • Eggless Crepes/Pancakes With Rhubarb Coulis
  • Mango Flavored Yogurt topped with Blackberries
  • Masala Tea
Lunch:
  • Masoor Dhal Soup
  • Veggie Pilaf and a Turkish Yogurt Side
  • Rhubarb and Oatmeal Crisp
Dinner:
  • Warm Couscous Salad
  • Baked Pumpkin dessert
  • Cardamom Spiced Milk

As for me, I wouldn't mind one of these(Ponte Vecchio Jewellery shop, Florence, Italy)-
But I would settle for a bunch of these-
And a box of these Belgian Gourmet Goodies-
I have plans with my family today, so will catch-up with all of your posts tomorrow.

  2. Dear lassie
    Happy mother's day to you, great Mom!!( remembering your flight to India episode!!!)
    And for flowers, I send you a bunch of rajanigandha instead of roses..
    And for the sweets ...all yours at awiss shop...send me the bill.
    Last but not the least ... jeweleries catch hold of dear hubby and catch hold of your son when he starts earning ( and before marriage)
    Take care
