Mother's Day ~

It's a special day for us here at Solomon......
our son will be home for Mother's Day weekend.....
I'm trying to contain my happiness since we haven't seen him since Christmas Day...
A weekend propped full of festivity...
a time of pure indulgence........

I do hope you all have a super Mother's Day and are spoilt by your loved ones......




A few of his favourite treats are being baked as I am writing this post.....
his most favourite you can find here
It's also such a good time to reflect on my late mom....
I loved surprising her on Mother's Day.....

Since there will be quite a few people in and out, I set up an informal buffet style tablescape to cope with everyone....
and of course the dishwaher will be working overtime ...








 
I know so many beautiful mothers personally, each unique with their own special touch....
To all of you, Happy Mother's Day!
we will be celebrating with my mom-in-law and spoiling her....
and I will be looking out for that special twinkling star  whom I miss so much!
 
Shel!

  3. Your star may be twinkling right next to my star. I wonder if they know each other. I'll bet that they do! I'm so excited that your son is coming home for the holiday. I can feel your excitement all the way across the sea. Thanks for the recipe. I'll give it a try. Happy Mother's Day! Cherry Kay
