To My Mother

For as long as I can remember
you were always by my side to give
me support to give me confidence
to give me help

For as long as I can remember
you were always the person
I looked up to so strong
so sensitive so pretty

For as long as I can remember
and still today you are
everything a mother should be...

For as long as I can remember
you always provided stability
within our family full of laughter
full of tears full of love

Whatever I have become is because of you
and I thank you forever for our relationship.

~Susan Polis Schutz

Blintzes Soufflé - Lindah
12 frozen cheese blintz
1/4 lb butter
4 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup sugar
Dash of vanilla

Melt butter in large pan and layer blintzes in pan. In blender, beat eggs. Add sour cream, sugar and vanilla. Pour over blintzes. Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees. Can make ahead and refrigerate, covered, before baking.

I found an 11" x 7" baking dish worked well and will actually hold 14 blintz. I only used 4 tbsp butter but found the sides of the pan difficult to clean after baking.

NOTE: I could not find cheese blintz so used cherry blintz. I understand you can purchase cheese blintz at Trader Joe's (4 to a package). This would make a wonderful Mother's day brunch.
