when I was young, dinner was a time when the whole family got together and ate. It's a wonderful thing that the Mama can have company and for you two, very brave! Looks like she's having fun in the garden! {:-Deb

I love to cook. I love dicing and chopping also because that means I have nice fresh ingredients at hand. It's very kind of you to have your mama with you. I'm sure that even when she cannot show it she is grateful for you. And, indirectly, you are both eating more healthy as well.

2011-05-20T01:26:15.450-07:00

Sue, thank you. We're lucky to have her, too.

Judie, vanilla ice cream cones coated in chocolate nuts are the mama's favorite.

fishducky, thank you. She's out there almost everyday. Fortunately she has very good health in general and stubborness as all get out. so, thankful that improving her nutrition was all it took and takes.

Ed, totally. :-)

Manzi, yes, people do congregrate in the kitchen, mostly because that's where I like to hang out in our parties. Thank goodness, the husband is a great host and moseys around the other rooms.

Jen: I hope most people spend time together in the kitchen,especially for meals. It makes for a more civilized world. But, sometimes I wonder.

La, thank you. Here's to you, too.

Tracy, yes indeed. Honestly, I think the mama is surprised I turned out to be a good one.

JDaniel4's Mom, most definitely. :-)

Theresa: This photo was taken last year sometime. She still wields them when I'm not looking.

The mama is lucky to have you & the husband to help her--& you're lucky to still have the mama with you. If she still can work in the garden, you're doing something right!

I always had a terrible time getting Rod's mum to eat. She did like ice cream, though!!

I agree the daily kitchen rituals can seem endless! Obviously, you're doing something right from the beautiful garden shot of your mother.

She is so blessed you both love to serve her. I bet she blesses you in many ways too.

It sounds like you have a good system set up. I care for my elderly father so I understand all that it entails. Keep up the good work! La

Most people spend most time in the kitchen I think. Good that you all enjoy your special responsibilities. Love Mam's gardening shot too.

2011-05-19T02:59:14.215-07:00

See, you do have a good time in the kitchen. Kitchen's are important social rooms in a house. When you have a party do the guests like to congregate in the kitchen. Mine always do. They like to stand around the counter or the fridge so you can't get near either. LOLManzanita@Wannabuyaduck
