Special occasions ask for special treats

Today is my mom’s birthday! She’s definitely the best mom on this planet. I really, really couldn’t imagine my life without her. She’s not only my mom but also my friend (although sometimes she mixes those two roles up a bit too much). I know when she’s around nothing can go wrong. She is the reason why I am able to take risks, because I know she is my safety net. I couldn’t have gone on that long journey without her help and her visit in Costa Rica was definitely the most special time on that trip. She is my rock.

I’ll never be able to give back all the things she’s doing for me, but I try. Every year on her birthday my sister and I cook a lot of special food for her party. Last year one of the dishes was Jamie Oliver’s Spicy Pork Ribs. I don’t eat meat, so I didn’t taste it, but everyone was completely smitten. The mixture of orange juice, lemon juice, spices and honey seems to be a blast. For today I am looking for an equally amazing dish. I am not quite sure yet, but maybe I am going to make some Roastbeef? Anyone having any suggestions? It has to be something that doesn’t need to marinate all night long and a cooking time less than four hours. Thanks for helping a girl out!

I wish you a great day! Celebrate
