On this Mother’s Day, I celebrate my mom by sharing her dog-eared recipes for Mexican Deviled Eggs and Avocado Dip (Guacamole). The recipes came from the 1980 version of Betty Crocker’s Mexican Cookbook. As she does with all of her cooking, my mom modified the recipes and made them her own. Unlike many cooks, she relishes the opportunity to share her secrets. Try ’em. You’ll like (no, love) ’em!

Texas removing the mask requirement is unconscionable. My father died last month from covid because of a single exposure to a relative (who was symptomatic). This pandemic is still very much in force and wearing a mask is the first level of protection.
