Steak -n- Strawberry Shortcake

These 3 very special kids are thrilled to be eating a Mother's Day lunch on the deck with their mom!

This is a Dutch way to make Strawberry shortcake - with rusk, brown sugar, strawberries and cool whip. The air is hung with a deliberate silence when the kids are eating it. My dutch-ish mother showed me how to make it.

I was given a monopod as a gift which is something cool I have been wishing I had.

Looks like you had a great Mother's Day. Aren't we lucky to have such a great mother? and great kids? I feel so blessed!

Yes we are! Hope yours was good, too.

Oh, we used to have rusk and strawberries a lot. Used to sell it at the bakery. I had forgotten about it.

Your title says "steak" and I see a hot dog on a plate??

What is a monopod?

Hi Ruth,

Maria doesn't like steak. A monopod is a 1-legged stand for my camera, not a bug.
