Bacon and Puff Pastry Wrapped Asapargus

Over the weekend, we celebrated Mother’s Day. The boys and I usually take mom out for a bottomless brunch at a fancy restaurant, but this year we decided to change it up a bit… a simple brunch at home. The weather was gorgeous on Sunday, so we were able to eat outside on my parents’ deck. Obsessed with party planning, I picked our theme and started working on decoration ideas and drafting a menu almost a month in advance. Needless to say, I consulted Pinterest. Although I did all the cooking and craft making, the boys really came through for me, helping me prepare, decorate and pick up last minute things. It was absolutely gorgeous — a Pinterest-worthy party, if I should say so myself.

Mother’s Day isn’t complete without the woman who is the core of our family, my Tayta. She is the glue that holds us all together and I can’t imagine a world without her.

My mother is my idol. I admire her for so many things. Most of all, her patience, unselfish nature, support and intellect. She’s one tough cookie and I really hope that one day I could be a fraction of the mother, wife, sister and friend she is.
