Yesterday was Mother’s Day and my mom and my new mother-in-law both suggested celebrating together since we all live relatively close to one another. Yay…FANCY LUNCHEON! Time to break out the fine china – thanks baby for handwashing all of the dishes afterward. 
The menu actually came out very well-balanced – miso-marinated grilled pork tenderloin (adapted from Epicurious), grilled corn and edamame salad (Epicurious), grilled tomatoes stuffed with crabmeat (my recipe), and goat cheese and ricotta with lemon and basil on grilled crostini (Giada DeLaurentis). Served with some peach bellinis that were a little thick but tasty. Of course I only took two sips because life doesn’t want me to enjoy much alcohol without spending time afterward on our comfy couch.
Dessert featured some fresh berries (courtesy of my sister-in-law) and a semolina custard cake covered in phyllo dough, with honey syrup and honeyed pine nuts (Martha Stewart):
I love you too. Really appreciate all the efforts after your surgery !!!
Plus more for my birthday ……
