We had Lisa (Goo Goo), Kevin and his g-friend Mai, and Hao-bu (Derek's mom) over for Lisa's birthday celebration on Monday night. It was a really nice night - the weather was perfect for dinner outside and it's always nice getting together with family.
The food was very yummy, if I do say so myself. By the request of the birthday girl, we made babyback ribs which we slow cooked in the oven for 4 hours and when they came out of the oven, they were falling off the bone. Also by request, we made pork chops which we brined all day and then grilled them. With the chops, we made a onion-peach marmalade to go on top of the chops and they were delicious. It was very easy and sooo good.
Here's the recipe for the pork chops... I highly recommend it:

We finished the night with a birthday cake and Miles and Oliver loved helping Goo Goo blow out her candles.
Happy birthday, Lisa! Here's to a great year! XOXO
