an EXTRA-special day

"God could not be everywhere, therefor he made mothers" -Jewish proverb

Mothers day is a very special day to me (no, i'm not a mother) but I have one, AND I have a mother-in-law.. to be it is a Holiday and it is one of those days that merit a gift, however a GIFT is always tricky.. this year my husband I decided that we would take our moms out to eat, to Pepper's for their Mothers day brunch. I'm not going to lie.. I LOVE LOVE LOVE PEPPER'S and their new and delicious menu, but i'm not the #1 fan of brunch..  but off to Pepper's we go.. (my mom was unable to make it) we invited my mother-in-law, her husband, my sister-in-law and her husband. From the second that we walked in.. we were SURPRISED.. I had just been to Pepper's the night before, but it was completely transformed yesterday..

it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! it was classy, simple, festive, and colorful!! all at once.. Quite frankly, I know i couldnt expect ANY less from First Class Engagements, they do the absolute BEST decorations, centerpieces.. ANYTHING!! as we were greeted by the hostess and we were seated, we were given a card that had our names on it.. and said "WE APPRECIATE YOU" "WE LOVE TO SERVE YOU - Carlos & Lizbeth Muriel" and I couldn't of felt MORE appreciated!! My hubby and I felt special.. (something about personalized, hand written greetings that makes it 1000x more special) needless to say that the food was TOP NOTCH!! absolutely delciious.. it was in a buffet style, like this:

my first thought was "SKIP THE BREAKFAST.. IT'S PAST NOON!!" but i'm soo glad i didn't listen to ME.. hahaha omggg.. delicious pancakess..fresh fruit.. soo soo good!! their HUEVITO was delicious!!  then I went straight to my favorite dish from Pepper's their SPAGHETTI  ALLA BOLOGNESE -  I would've been a happy camper with just the spaghetti...ever since they changed their new menu, i've come to the conclusion that I may be addicted to their spaghetti their sauce is soo rich.. and just as we thought we were done.. we saw  the delicious tower of goodies..

YES!! those are GIDDYS!! the tiniest of them all!! they made their debut at the mothers day brunch!! and YES they come with fillin too!! and YES they are just as delicious as the "ORIGINAL" size.. ohh I was in heaven, i felt as if it was a celebration for me and not for my mother-in-law!! my hubby must have eaten 4 of them!! I must say that I am looking forward to celebrating mothers day next year.. everything was AMAZING thank YOU Pepper's for you FANTASTIC customer service, and your delicious FOOD!! on behalf of our family to you.. THANK YOU for making this day EXTRA-Special
