Today is the day to celebrate all mothers. So to all the mothers here on The Avocado, and to all mothers of Avocados, a happy Mother’s Day! Or not, if you don’t really care for it for whatever reason.

I want to give a special shout-out to one particular mother, who 33 years ago on this very day gave birth to a certain tweed-wearing, gorgeous cat-owning Dutch Avocado. She did a pretty good job raising that certain person who is definitely not me, all things considered.

And also to Pliny’s mom, since it’s his birthday too.

Happy posting!
