Mother's Day History

    

 The History of Mother's Day 

 I am happy to share a little history about Mother's Day, especially 

     since it was Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia (I'm from Philadelphia area) who proposed and campaigned for the idea ! 

If you take a walk in center city Philadelphia, you will see numerous signs posted by The Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission commemorating important historical people, buildings, and points of interest that contributed to Pennsylvania history. 

Ann Jarvis is on one of those signs at the corner of Juniper street and Market Street marking her contribution to the history of Mother's Day! 

Mushroom Walnut Enchiladas

If you are a fan of enchiladas, you may enjoy this interesting meat-free version. What's in these plant-based enchiladas? 

Heart healthy walnuts, flavorful mushrooms, and high fiber meaty black beans provide a tasty base for this simple Mexican inspired recipe.

IN MY KITCHEN (IMK)

I'm joining a group of bloggers who participate in Sherry's monthly In My Kitchen Blog Share. It's an opportunity for my readers to see what's new in my kitchen each month. 

This month I have a few new items and ideas for you!

Happy May and Joyful Flowers

                April showers bring May flowers. 

Hopefully all the rain has passed and we will be enjoying some nice sunny warmer dry weather 

Being in Florida, I miss the blooming of all my spring flowers back in Pennsylvania such as lilacs, crocuses, daffodils, hyacinths, peonies, etc. 

Today I'm posting floral photos from the past when I was home in the spring and a link to some foods I cooked last May.
