My Sister & Nieces

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):

• Sweet Treat for the Non Baker
• Eggs in Maple Syrup (Oeufs Dans le Sirop D’Erable)
• Cauliflower au Gratin
• Biscuits Frigidaire (Icebox Cookies)

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

• Grandma’s Chocolate and Peanut Butter Treats
• Canadian Brown Sugar Pie
• Bolognese Sauce a la Laetitia
• Basic Crepe Batter

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!
