Today, my wonderful neighbor lady brought me some lilac branches. Wasn't that wonderful of her? I love lilacs. They remind me of my mother. That and lilies of the valley. When I was a pre-teenish, I used to make my mom Mother's Day corsages out of lilacs and sometimes lillies of the valley. When I grow up I will have lillies of the valley and a lilac bush growing in my yard. And with that we will have whatever those white flowering trees are too..and since I'm dreaming well also include the pink ones. I LOVE SPRING!
In preparation for this lovely holiday to celebrate moms, I've done a little searching for a yummy dessert and this is what I came up with (which shouldn't have been so hard since it was right on my blog list from Barefoot and Baking but I had to make sure it was the "one")
Doesn't it look delicous?
It looks simple but unfortunately there are lots of steps to this one so hopefully I don't screw it up! :)
...I'll let you know how it goes.

Don't delete this post. I would write some of this down, but we both know I would lose it.
Yummy! What a wonderful springy thought, lilacs, lemon and berries....the only thing missing is butterflies! I want that dessert!!!! NOW!
That reminds of my very first official Mothers' Day. I had just had Jacob. I was worn out and tired and hadn't gotten outside to enjoy the spring time, not to mention we were rock bottom poor. Greg knew how much I love spring and how sad I was that I was missing it. My Mothers' Day present from Greg was a bunch of lilies of the valley that he had picked from our yard and put them on his pillow so the first thing that I smelled when I woke up was the fragrance of lilies of the valley. It made me cry. I have the lilac tree, and the pink flowering trees, but I do need some lilies of the valley. Happy Mothers' Day to you!
Oh and why am I not on your Friend Blog list? Am I not your friend?
