Passover, Easter, Ostara = awesome

Cooking a nice lunch for the family (Nick celebrates Easter) - it includes another try at mustard potato salad with the hope of coming close to Mom's recipe which she never wrote down and wouldn't tell us the secret ingredient (she thought she had more time to share those).

With a Southern recipe off the internet and with a bit of adjusting by Jackie and myself (and a quick trip to Kroger for forgotten items)..... by Jove, I think we've got it! Darn close to Mom's potato salad.

Happy Snoopy dance! We will definitely pass along the treasured recipes to Nick Carr! 
 
By now I'm a bit tired of matzah crackers, I'll admit.  I don't eat a lot of bread but I do eat crackers and I'm missing them a bit. 
 
Ma - not exactly your potato salad recipe but darn close! We love and miss you and think you'd be very proud of Nick and the progress he's made since Sept.

My speciality. I found this recipe in an unusual book in my senior year in highschool and we gave it a try. I've adapted it over the years (reducing the paprika so we aren't reaching for a pitcher of water or milk like Jonathan Harker was). This works well with just breasts or thighs or whatever combo you'd like.  The sauce is fantastic on eggs the next morning too.

Becoming Mom - part whatever

Okay, instead of hand sewing something as I normally would, I used the machine. The design works, the stuff for the project doesn't.  We need bigger pipe insulation. We're making drafty door blockers and the insulation is too small since we ripped out the carpets. So, first foray into sewing with a machine in a long time went well but the project is stalled until tomorrow or Friday.
