Mothers’ Day

Published by at 8:30 pm under Flowers,Food,Sarah

Sarah made three Mothers’ Day cards this year. 

On Wednesday morning, she pulled me aside in the kitchen and told me, “We’re in big trouble!”  When I asked why we were in big trouble, she said, “Sunday is Mothers’ Day.  We’ve got to start making something!” 

I said we had time to make something, but don’t tell Mommy.  Sarah: “I won’t tell Mommy what we’re making, but I already told her we’re in big trouble.”

On Saturday, because Mark Bittman told us to — and because we are good burghers — we made (mostly vegetarian) sushi.

These are leftover broiled salmon, red miso paste and sweet pea shoot rolls.

In bloom this weekend: anemones (Rhinebeck is the anemone capital of the world)

and these, which I guess are some kind of lily.  They were gone this morning, presumably having been munched by a deer.
