In the last two years nothing has brought more happiness into my world than these two. As much as I love my grand-daughter the more joy comes from witnessing my very own daughter be a mother. For the girl who never played with dolls or preferred never to babysit and barely made it through the summer as a camp counselor she astonishes me with her love and patience with her baby girl. Her quiet teaching, her ingenuity, her juggling of quality time and her natural instincts are inspiring.
She is the best mom I have ever known and I am so extremely proud to wish her a Happy Mother’s Day.

Never a fan of the yellow single wrapped cheese, my very own mother (aka Granny) made a really great grilled cheese she called “mozzarella en carroza” for me. Using an old box grated she would shred “the expensive” cheese into a giant pile and then pack it between slices of white bread, dip it in egg and fry it in olive oil. I loved it then and still love it now. I make variations on the theme, but Annabelle enjoys the classic and does a pretty good cheese pull. Generations of love made edible.

1 cup shredded or thinly sliced mozzarella cheese 4 slices Country white buttermilk bread 1 egg 1-tablespoon milk Pinch of salt and pepper Olive oil for shallow frying Divide cheese between two bread slices. Top each with a second slice of bread. Gently press together. Trim crusts off, if desired. On a flat plate, lightly beat egg with milk, salt and pepper. Dip sandwiches in egg coating both sides well. Heat olive oil in skillet over medium heat. Add sandwiches. Cook turning until both sides are golden brown and cheese is melted. Makes 2 sandwiches.Mozzarella En Carroza

Beautiful post and pics! Lisa, it’s no surprise that your daughter is a fabulous mom because she had YOU as her role model.
Happy Mother’s Day!
Awe thanks! And you and I had each other. Remember when we switched babysitting for each other so we could have a date night with our husbands?
Yes! So many good memories and happy times. ❤️
