Mother’s Day is rapidly approaching. Some of us still have our mothers with us and others have many good memories of their mother. I still have my mother but my mother-in-law has gained her heavenly reward. Here is a list of a few of my favorite desserts that I love to make for special occasions. Somehow cheesecakes still top the list of desserts I love to make.

Here is a picture of my parents taken at our daughter’s wedding in April. I am thankful to still have my mother with us and we are looking forward to have them at our house for Sunday lunch.
