Happy Mother’s Day

May 8, 2011 by Carrie Sellman

So it turns out that my husband does actually read Half Baked (and is pretty good at taking a hint).  We celebrated Mother’s Day with a picnic lunch in the park.  Fresh fruit, cheese, water crackers… even a crusty baguette and chocolate chip cookies from my favorite local bakery.  Sadie enjoyed some tummy time and a few good books.  It was absolutely perfect.  I couldn’t have asked for a nicer first Mother’s Day.  It was a lovely afternoon in the park with my family.
Mother's Day Picnic

Hope your day was just as fabulous.  Happy Mother’s Day!
