1. Not quite sure. Going to

a friends for Mother's day and everyone is bringing "a dish to pass".

I'm bringing Hearts of Palm and Artichoke Salad.

Wishing all you Mom's a great Mother's Day!

2. I'm out at my son's house this weekend. He's doing a pork shoulder

on the smoker, my daughter is bringing cole slaw, baked beans and deviled eggs and I'm making German potato salad, refrigerator rolls and banana cake with broiled topping.

3. I'm scared...

the men are in charge of the meal. My husband prefers to cook but my BIL picked up some kind of frozen pasta dishes instead. At least there is good salad involved since my husband is preparing that! He's prepping a make-your-own salad bar kind of thing and a good caesar. His family is the least adventurous group I have ever known so they will find the salads "exotic" lol.

4. I'll be cooking for the folks

Fish and chips. Coconut cake with strawberries for dessert.

5. Wow, pipoman, what a spread. I'm impressed with the

choices you're offering, and am sure everyone will thoroughly enjoy their Mother's Day brunch/dinner.

I cooked for the family today and we had Italian sausages with peppers & onions, cooked apples, mashed potatoes, green beans, asparagus (from our garden), green salad, biscuits and cornbread, and homemade vanilla ice cream. Everyone has gone home and I'm stuffed. Time to go "set a spell" on the porch with my sudoku puzzles.
