I'm glad she was there to do the thing that only mom's can do - not kick your ass when you're being a bitch and let you talk it out. BTW: excellent looking pie! And that bag is oh so cute :) I knew your mom was a peach! I’m glad she was there to do the thing that only mom’s can do – not kick your ass when you’re being a bitch and let you talk it out.

Especially to have her here, because suddenly being an ocean apart feels like a gazillion miles. Maybe I should bake too! There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for my mom right now.

(he was sick, too) i'm glad your mom was sympathetic and loving. sounds just like what you needed. your bag turned out great. i can now envision the goodness of the swing bag without the bow. and, poor rex, not able to eat your yummy apple pie on his birthday. i'm sure he appreciated the gesture! sometimes we just need our mothers. no matter how old we are. i remember being really sick with a fever and body chills/aches (etc.) when i was pregnant with mason (living 400 miles away from my mom) and i called her for her sympathy. even though joe was there, i still needed my mom.

Very nice bag, and you're right about the big bow/fugly thing. Aren't African fabrics great! A friend brings me a few yards every time she or her mom go to Nigeria, I love it!

The pie looks delish. When Steve's Dad was in the hospital right after his stroke, I left a plateful of Valentine's cookies at the nurses staff....never hurts to butter 'em up! They loved it. Bag = Adorable. You're right. Big bows, nasty...:D There has been a sort of FUNK about this week, hasn’t there?
