I lit a candle for my Mom, thinking of her because today is/was her birthday, and I miss her, of course.
Also, I'm using her china, which is a beautiful basketweave pattern.
And a little dish with a painted picture of rosemary on it, I'm using to hold salt. "Rosemary for remembrance."
The boys and I colored eggs last night, which was really fun.
And here is an Easter card Harry made. I think it's adorable.
We'll be having ham, mushroom risotto, asparagus, and maple-roasted sweet potatoes, so I've got to get cracking, and will try to keep any sugary-teary breakdowns at bay with some Prosecco.
These coconut cupcakes are for dessert, later.
Here's to family & friends, near and far, at our table or in our hearts.
