The best part of visiting home is my mom’s cooking. My mom is an AMAZING cook and her food not only looks like it belongs in a gourmet restaurant, it tastes like it as well. For my last dinner at home she made a medley of my favorite things: Shrimp Skewers, Mediterranean rice, Borek (a Turkish sort of egg roll), lemon-lime broccoli & cauliflower, cabbage coleslaw, and croissants. She also made her famous BBQ  Brisket for my boyfriend and dad.

Because I ate soooo much food during my vacation I’ve decided to do a 3 day smoothie cleanse…starting today. I will keep you guys posted on my results via instagram, and of course look out for a blog post with all the yummy smoothie recipes. But for now, I will drool over these photos and reminisce on that heavenly meal.
