CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES

I always have mixed emotions on Mother’s Day. It’s a beautiful day to celebrate and recognize all that moms do.

I’m so grateful to be a mother but always feel like there’s room for improvement on my part. My own mother is amazing and I can only hope to be half the mom she is.

But then I’m also very sensitive to those who are future moms or want to be moms and can’t. Then I think of those, like my nephew, who have moms in heaven watching over them. I’m torn the whole day.
My husband always spoils me on Mother’s Day.
He ordered these live lobsters that showed up a day early. So we had to eat them a day early so they didn’t die…before we killed them.

We let the kids play with them first.

I know you shouldn’t play with your food but the kids have been begging us for a dog and this was our compromise.

After we did a little BTR (build-the-relationship), I couldn’t bring myself to cook them. I made my husband do it.

Mother Nature was celebrating Mother’s Day too. These baby birds just hatched in our Bougainvillea. Every time I peek my head in they open their mouths for food.

The best part about the day was that my husband cooked dinner. Steaks, crab cakes, Scalloped Potatoes, and these cheesecake stuffed strawberries that I’ve seen all over Pinterest.

Our strawberries were the size of small apples! In case you want the recipe…it’s below.

HOW TO MAKE CHEESECAKE STUFFED STRAWBERRIES

  • Once strawberries are filled, sprinkle or dip the tops with graham cracker crumbs.
