Yesterday was Mother's Day. And a pleasant one was had. Of course I cooked dinner for the Queen Mother....there was some assistance from both the Royal Sire and Royal Sibling. I made The Queen Mother's favorite dish, "Steak Diane" along with garlic & dill mashed potatoes and spinach salad. Actually, Steak Diane is really a Royals favorite we all love to have it when ever possible. It's suppose to be made with filet mignon, but most times a good New York Strip steak works well. the secret is near the end it is flambé using a cognac (Henessey generally)....and that's all I will say here....Hmm maybe one day I'll actually share the recipe on "The Colored Plate" blog....lol but is an advanced recipe, not sure folks are ready for it! Anyway, dinner was great success, I also made the other family favorite, peach cobbler.
The only hiccup to the day....is that I was sent three "Happy Mother's Day" messages. WHY do people send Mother day greetings to men. To me.....it's like wishing "Merry Christmas" to a Muslim, Jew, Buddhist or any other Non-Christian. Hmmm....it's like wishing a Klu Klux Klan member a happy "Martin Luther King Jr Day." It just doesn't make sense to do it. It is even more strange to me, for a man to wish another man a "happy Mother's day" Ironically...all three messages were from other guys....atleast one was kind of enough to send a picture of himself shirtless to go along with the inappropriate greeting. Is it me...am I just crazy?
Sincerely,
Pharoah
