POLENTA FRIES: Crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and takes only 5 minutes to prepare! You can get the full recipe at emma.frish.substack. This is truly one of THE easiest recipes that kids (and grown-ups) LOVE. As you can see, my pickiest eater, Cora, testifies to that. You can eat polenta fries plain as a snack, dipped in sauce (ketchup, pesto, marinara...), or served alongside braised meat, roast chicken, or cut smaller and turned into croutons for a fresh salad! Truly versatile and deeeelish.

When my twin sister and I went to Italy with my mom last October, she took us to our maternal ancestors’ home, Venice.

We’d visited many times growing up, but returning as mothers ourselves (albeit without our children on this trpi!) was truly special. We got to follow Mamma all over the city, getting lost in the maize of alleyways.

My mom was determined to find her grandfather’s favorite restaurant, and when we finally did, it was closed for the day. So we decided to eat at the restaurant adjacent to it, which turns out, was owned by the same person, which means we sort of got to eat at my great-grandfather’s favorite restaurant!

One of our favorite dishes was a Venetian Classic: Polenta with Baccalà Mantecato (creamed codfish). Though I haven’t been able to replicate the polenta to a T, I’ve been recreating variations of this polenta concept: crisped on the outside and creamy on the inside.

When I realized I could cut fun shapes out of the polenta instead of rectangles, my children suddenly became intrigued... and hooked. I even included a recipe in Seasonal Family Almanac for “”Snowy Polenta with Fungi.””

The great thing about this approach to “”polenta fries”” (see my last reel) is that you can cook the polenta with broth to boost the nutrition, or add-ins like herbs and parmigiano for flavor!

I used to scoff at commercial holidays, but once I became a mother, I couldn't wait until Mother's Day! It meant getting a day to do whatever the heck I wanted.

A day off the job.

A day to be pampered and showered with flowers and gifts. RIGHT?!

Well. Not exactly.

I have a track record for nursing sick children on Mother's Day weekend 😅

But as kids illnesses tend to do, it fixed me firmly in my role as mother, while also helping me stay present to the dreamy moments that unfold between the funk.

It also meant no other plans which left two glorious days to let various projects unfold.

On Saturday I made buckwheat crepes with alllll the toppings. I also made @janablankenship1 "Essential Lotion" from Seasonal Familiy Almanac, using rose and lemon balm-infused oil from our garden (it's so easy to make infused oil and Jana spells it out in our book!).

I tried turning it pink with beet powder to entice the girls to hydrate their skin.

(Anyone else's kids averse to lotion?!).

On Sunday, my darling husband, who was also sick, still woke with Ayla to harvest a bouquet of lilacs and bring it along with breakfast to me in bed (where I was reading to the a sick Cora).

I snuck out for a walk with a dear friend while the kids watched Sunday cartoons, found a morel mushroom with Bobby right outsde the back door, and shiitakes growing on our logs, watched the girls collect flowers and make art with them (or eat them), and tried to paint an old bench.

All in all it was another day on the best job I've ever had: being a mother.

Even through all the ups and downs, I know this to be true.

My new book with @janablankenship1 is THE perfect

My new book with @janablankenship1 is THE perfect gift for mamas. (And did you know, it was made by a team of mothers too?).

Here are just a few recipes to celebrate Mother’s Day.

Sending love and gratitude to all the mothers in my life, and in the world, and to all the caretakers who provide nurturing care and love.

And sending EXTRA squeezes of love to those of you who’s mothers have transitioned to the realm of ancestors, from where I believe they continue to offer love and guidance.

These waves of spring ephemerals feel like a huge embrace from Mother Earth 🌷🌼.

Their fleeting nourishment, medicine, perfume, and beauty repeatedly show me how to mother myself (violet tea for breakfast, an aimless sunny walk with the girls, yes please!) and also how to mother my children (be present, their childhood is fleeting, like the violets). ☀️🤸‍♂️🍵

One of our family’s favorite floral treats this time of year is Lilac Honey (recipe at emmafrisch.substack.com).

Lilacs are a topical ally for the skin, in particular for cuts and rashes. Internally, they can help with gastrointestinal issues and fever reduction. A honey infusion is stunning and intoxicating 🍯.

Spread the infused honey on a scrape or cut, drizzle it on toast, swirl it into tea, or simply close your eyes and eat a spoonful.

Even better, you can adapt this easy recipe for other flowers and herbs all year long! 🙌

I’d love to hear what you make! Tag me in your picture or leave a comment 👇😘

Sharing one of our family favorites—Homemade Real Fruit Gummies 🍓✨

I captured this on camera two years ago with the girls, when we started making cooking videos during Covid.

It's too cute to leave in the archival abyss of Youtube, so here it is again, as we launch into FRESH FRUIT season!

I'd love to hear what flavor you make!
