"Holidays during quarantine remind us of just how different things are now. Traditionally my mom and sister's and I go out to brunch for Mother's Day. I'd don a pretty dress and we'd laugh over fruity cocktails. This year my husband has decided to treat me to a crab feast at home. I'm actually excited. All we need now is a Mother's Day cocktail to add to the celebration. ⠀"
