09 May 1914 - PRESIDENT WILSON MAKES MOTHER'S DAY A FEDERAL HOLIDAY:
Since 1905, Anna Jarvis has lobbied various officials to adopt a holiday honoring mothers, and she's succeeded in convincing many US states to
take part. Today, President Woodrow Wilson proclaims the second Sunday
in May to be Mother's Day and a US federal holiday.

Title: Mother's Day Mimosa Granita
Categories: Five, Wine, Citrus
Yield: 5 servings

1/2 c Water
3 tb Granulated sugar
3 c Fresh squeezed orange juice
3/4 c Champagne
6 sl (thin) orange & strawberry;
- garnish

Add the water and sugar to a small saucepan, place it
over medium heat and cook just long enough to dissolve
the sugar, about 1 minute. Let it cool to room
temperature.

Add the orange juice. Stir to blend.

Pour the mixture into a shallow dish, cover it with
plastic wrap and place it in the freezer until the edges
are frozen, about 30 minutes. Scrape the ice from the
edges with a fork, mixing it into the center. Repeat
this scraping and mixing process every 20 minutes or so,
until it has turned into tiny ice flakes. (Don't stir as
you would a batter -- you should almost be "chopping" as
you move the ice around.) Keep this in the freezer until
you're ready to use it.

Fill 4 to 6 glasses with the granita and let it defrost
slightly, so that it's slushy, about 5 minutes.

Cut slits in the orange and strawberry slices, garnish
the glasses with them and serve!

Servings: 4 to 6
