After a game of bocce in the backyard, we had a burgers done on the barbecue. These were special, deluxe Mother's Day burgers: turkey and ground pork, blended with a peanutty Thai sauce and lots of cilantro.
Steamed potatoes tossed with chives, freshly picked, and a crunchy cabbagey salad with big curls of carrots.
Even an apple cobbler for dessert, topped with walnuts and other crispy bits. Big scoops of vanilla ice cream over top.
It's more than once a year I am glad to be a mother. Still, such a special day is a great treat.
