Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!

I hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day with your families or friends.  My family has banned me from the kitchen, so my husband can work his magic at the barbecue grill (He's our resident "Fire King".). He's treating me to his grilled chicken thighs basted in honey, gluten free soy sauce and Green's Dubbel Dark Ale (yep, it's gluten free). He's also fixing a bountiful offering of grilled fresh squash and corn.

I wouldn't be a Mom if it wasn't for my husband...my "Fire King," and my very own geek love. We found each other, discovered friendship and slowly fell in love. Over the years, our love grew and we added a son to our little family. As he grew, our love for him and each other grew even more. We decided to add another little one to our family several years later and were blessed with a daughter.

Parenthood has been a wild ride of joy, agnst, love, panic, hope, worry and pride for the children we cherish. They are growing into beautifully honorable people that I'm delighted to know and love. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you my dearest "Fire King" for our son and daughter.

Note: In the Houston area, you can find Green's Pale and Dark Ale at Whole Foods. Bard's Tale can be found at Spec's Liquor Stores.
