My daughter tagged this picture on Facebook. Seeing it made me miss my grandson all the more. I haven’t seen him for almost two weeks now. I am excited to discover something new that he could do.  He is five months and two weeks young now.

Mother’s day is fast approaching.  My daughter is big on celebrations like this. I remember the past years when she would plan where we would spend lunch or dinner on Mother’s day. She makes her own greeting cards and not an event would pass by without a lovely message from her. She’s now a mother too and I am excited to return the favor and greet her  Happy Mother’s Day on May 12.

This is something I learned from our Culinary Arts club when I was still working at Bank of PI.  Since fruits are in season this summer why not try pickling some of them for future use? I used to make pickled green papaya,  we call it atsara in Tagalog.  It will last in the ref for about a month. You can add in your favorite veggies too.  The good thing about pickles  is that they are so handy as side dish with  fried fish or pork.  I like the sweet and sour pickle solution.
Ingredients:

1 tsp. salt
