As you all know by now, family is so important to me. I have the best sister in the whole world! Of course, I am sure all of you with sisters are saying, “No way, my sister is the best sister in the world!”. She just recently moved to her dream home. It is a little closer to me so we are spending much more time together. This past weekend she grilled one of the best steaks I have ever eaten! Thank you sissy! I made this yummy Purslane Salad Semizotu Salatası to go with it. Hope you all enjoy!
