Happiness Can Come in Small Packages Too

Choco Cashew Biscuit

I love when relatives visit us. My aunt and her family were here in the States on vacation, and stopped by our place for a short visit. We caught up on old times and exchanged news about each other. I love hearing stories about my hometown and how things have progressed or changed.

It was a night of fun and good food. We figured they would like something different than Indian food, so we made penne a la vodka with vegetables served with garlic bread and dark chocolate brownies for dessert. They were a hit, especially the brownies. They were going like hot cakes!

Afterwards, we looked through family photos and talked late into the night. Before they left in the morning, they gave us a "small package" of happiness. I could hardly contain myself. How did they know about my love for these crumbly and delicious biscuits from Karachi Bakery?

~*A Special Mother's Day Weekend*~

Mother's Day started on Friday for us since I couldn't wait to give my mom and grandmother the flowers I bought for them. I left work early and drove straight to the local florist (been going there since my prom). I had a floral arrangement made for both them; sending lots of love from my sister, dad and me.

They loved the burst of color from all the various flowers: lilies, daises, mums, roses, hydrangeas, and carnations. The florist inserted shimmering crystals into some of the flowers for that extra sparkle. Only the very best for the special ladies in my life.

My mom is "one of a kind" and she deserves things that are also just like her. So of course, I had to give her this brooch.

A great find from Red Ribbon Gift Shop, Morris Plains NJ 

Once gift giving was complete, I kicked my mom out of the kitchen and started on the next surprise; it's something crunchy and peanut buttery.
