We woke up to snow this morning. SNOW!! On Mother’s Day!! We knew it was going to get cold again this weekend, but we hadn’t counted on that. It didn’t put too much of a damper on our day though. We had our first full family gathering here at the house with twelve of us in all for dinner. It brought me such joy to be able to give my mother the gift of having her three children, her five grandchildren and her partner all together on Mother’s Day.
I kept the promise I had made with myself which was to have a family get-together at our place, but to keep it simple and easy for Craig and I. We had a potluck meal, and I provide a delicious ham which I had pre-ordered from Don’s Meat Market in Almonte. It came pre-glazed, all wrapped in foil, ready to be cooked (Don’s instructions: 2-3 hours at 250 degrees). It was absolutely delicious and so, so easy. Plus we’ll now have ample leftovers for lunches through the week.
Happy Mother’s Day
