The Amateur cook in me: Mother's day edition: French toast for breakfast and Lemon chicken for lunch

Today, May 06, 2018, we are celebrating Mother's Day in Spain. I can only surmise that most families are going to dine out so I decided to treat my husband and my son to homechilled meals. Hehehehe after all, cooking requires time and dedicating time, to my personal standards, is a big sign of how much to love a person. Hihihihi

So for this Mother's day 2018, we enjoyed homecooked French Toast for breakfast and Lemon Chicken for lunch...
