      Happy Mother's Day !!!
      After another great night's sleep got up and about computing, coffees done, shorts on and heading out for my first walkabout at 6:30. Had my hoody on but the sun warming things up nicely. Just after 7 am made my way to the clubhouse to volunteer to help with the Mother's Day Breakfast, just because I can and enjoy working in the Kitchen. Brings back memories of my 10 years having fun cooking. Mind you it has been a while, closed the restaurant back in 1999 after 10 years of way too many hours and not enough money.
      This breakfast here at Rock Glen Resort is free to all the mother's here in the park. But being the weekend before our long weekend not very many people here. Probably fed 30 or so people (5 dozen eggs) from 8 am until 10 am, with help here from Mike doing the Ham and home fries and Dorothy making the toast, the other ladies taking orders and what ever else needs to be done. All I had to do was cook the eggs to order. Not a problem this grill was not mine but we got it done and no complaints that I heard of anyway.
Having fun behind the grill again
over easy
eggs cooked to order
you know me and CECE in the Blue shirt is the co-ordinater
thanks to Monique for the Picture
Suzie enjoying her free Mother's day breakfast
still made by me though
     Back home by 10:30 made a quick trip to Forest for a few food supplies and now to relax outside enjoying this wonderful very warm sunny day did get to 75F sunny and no wind, Perfect !
quiet here other than the birds making a lot of noise
but that is enjoyable noise.
         A bit later I thawed out and cleaned some shrimp that we bought in Los Algodones Mexico. these are huge and right from Rocky Point Mexico on the Sea of Cortez. A great deal for these only $10.00 a pound, for that posting you can click HERE Feb 14th this year.
these are huge and very tasty
          Just after 3pm our good friends Emile and Monique joined us for Happy Hour. Such a beautiful day. Me in shorts. t-shirt and sandals sitting in the sun, They in the shade where it is much cooler.
Sharing more stories just because we can.
          A bit later they headed  home and I back inside to whip up supper.  Tonight Suzie requested Garlic Shrimp Pasta I have made a few times before. Of course I took care of her request, especially on Mother's Day. For that recipe you can click HERE or my recipe blog top right side bar.
saute' everything here while the pasta is cooking
then add the pasta and and is so tasty
this hit the spot and more leftovers
probably share for a lunch
     What a great Mother's day we had, enjoying great weather, good food and time with our friends. Even some ,messages from the kids wishing Suzie a Happy Mother's Day.
     Now still outside wrapping up this posting after 8 pm and still in shorts 65F (18C) What more can we ask for? I actually managed 2.5miles walked today. not sure where I went but got my exercise in.
     Thanks for checking us out today  And hope you enjoyed this Mother's Day as well.

  2. Nice to volunteer for the Mother's Day breakfast...nothing like being back in the kitchen cooking and not worrying about costs, labor or unhappy customers. Sounds like you had a grand day and Suzie enjoyed Mother's Day

  12. If I need an inspiration for dinner I just need to go to your blog. There is always something yummy cooking on the grill. What a wonderful gesture from the RV park to invite all mothers to a free breakfast.

    1. I like to keep things interesting for meals, and share them. Makes cooking more fun.
      Jeu do the Mother's Day free every year as well as the Father's Day breakfast. And quite often they do a free pancake breakfast for everyone in the park.
