Today’s Mother’s Day and I want to celebrate two of the mothers in my life, my mom Diane and my sister Josee. Mom’s job was easy as she had me as a daughter and only had to worry about my sister (LOL). My sister has two gorgeous daughters who I’m proud to call my God-Daughters.

Both mom and my sister are great cooks and in the spirit of this being a food and wine blog, I’ll share a few recipes from their repertoires.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the special ladies out there!

Happy Mother’s Day – Or As We Say, Bonne Fete des Mères

Today’s Mother’s Day and once again, the three mothers closest to me are in my thoughts, but far away.  Those three special women are my mom, Diane, grandma Laetitia and my sister, Marie-Josée.  Beyond our family bounds, one way that makes us close is food.  All three of these ladies are amazing cooks, even my sister who may not have our passion for cooking but is a super cook also.

I’ll celebrate this special day by sharing some recipes passed down to me from mom and grandma that I think you’ll enjoy.

Mom‘s contributions (this picture is of us 20 years ago):

Grandma‘s contributions (pictured with my sister and her daughter):

If you try any of these recipes, please share a comment so I can let the special ladies in my life know!

Happy Mother’s Day!
