Picaresque: Mother's Day in Medford

About Me

Location: Arapahoe, Wyoming, United States

(Note: Blogs read from bottom to top; scroll down for beginnings, scroll up for most current.) After 30 years in public administration and four degrees, as well as numerous workshops with luminaries in Education and Public Policy, life in a slower lane became a goal. Most recently I have done policy writing and consulting for the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. Mostly, I am just coasting slowly and gently downhill these days-seeking joy where I can find it before the glorious ride ends.

Mother's Day in Medford

Matt works Sundays and with the baby it is easier to eat at home so Eve graciously ceded her kitchen to me so I could cook for the mothers:

Cornish Game Hens on a bed of Wild Rice dressing with Blueberry cinnamon sauce;
Spring greens with mandarin oranges sweet onions, and sauteed walnuts, mandarin balsamic vinaigrette;
Asparagus with lemon mayonnaise;
Sourdough bread;
French-Vanilla ice cream with hot fudge sauce and sauteed almonds, garnished with fresh strawberries.

Blackberry-sage iced sun tea, and a local white wine.

Eve's neighbor Hoppi joined us and brought appetizers early in the day so we feasted the livelong day. Nice day.
