Mothering Sunday
I was thoroughly spoilt on Mothering Sunday; flowers, cards, chocolates and a delicious meal. Younger daughter, Wee One, came round in the morning and set to work in the kitchen. The whole household is usually with her, so it is especially nice when I have her all to myself. She went back home and collected them later when it was time to eat. She is a good and adventurous cook and made a meal from a book of Persian recipes.
It tasted delicious. (And there was enough left over for the following day!)
Iris and freezia flowers, colours that I love.
And a card that made me laugh.

That meal looks and sounds delicious and I love the card. I see there are two Persiana recipe books and have just requested both from our Library.
ReplyDeleteOh, do let me know what recipes you make and if there are one or two that are especially good.. This stew was really tasty
DeleteWonderful recipes. I'd love to try those
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit stuck in a rut with my cooking these days, there seems so much that we are not supposed to eat, conflicting information. I need to take lessons from Wee One!
DeleteIt sounds like a great day for you all around!
ReplyDeleteIt was lovely, and, since we now live near to each other, very nice to have them push off when we are ready for a quiet time!
DeleteHi Rosemary, you were really treated! I love Fesenjan and crispy Persian rice. I had a lovely Persian friend who'd whip it up, and other delights, at occasional banquets - you'd hardly call them dinners! - for lucky friends.
ReplyDeleteHello, Pip, I haven't heard from you for a while and hope all is well. It is a VERY good idea to have friends who can whip up a banquet! You will see from my book club posting that by combining our efforts we come up with a feast. Sitting round a table with good friends is one of life's pleasures.
