First of all, heartiest congratulations on the big 5. It is indeed a big achievement for the community and special thanx to @silversaver888 for being the backbone of this community and keeping it strong and steady. Thanx to all the community member for their huge participation week on week which makes this community successful. And to all those who sponsor the giveaways for the community contest and making it attractive.
Getting on to the questions.
1️⃣ - If I could bring a special dish, to the anniversary table of @Ladiesofhive, what will it be -
There are many dishes that I can think of, but I will consider one dish which speaks about my culture, and I will bring it to the table to introduce this culture with my other ladies of this community.
The dish is called Patra ni Machi. We prepare this only on very special occasions of celebrations. Normally a full mini size pomfret is used in making of this. Machi means Fish. Machi we call it in our local language. The fish is cleaned well and kept whole. A green chutney paste is made of coconut, coriander, chilies and other spices. The past is applied on all sides of the fish and after that it is wrapped up in a banana leaf. Then it's steamed till the fish is cooked, which ideally does not take more then 20 minutes. The whole taste of the dish depends on how well the chutney is prepared and the freshness of the fish. It's a dish we prepare in celebrations, so it would be ideal to bring it to the table and celebrate the special anniversary occasion of the community and in that manner also introduce a part of my culture to the community.

2️⃣ What’s one wish or blessing you would give to the Ladies of Hive community as we celebrate this milestone?
I wish loads of power to the community and I would bless this community to continue with some rigor and power for many many more years on Hive and keep growing in leaps and bounds. And along with the community growing, I wish growth for every community member who is dedicated to the community. May their lives also prosper and flourish along with the growth of the community.
3️⃣ What song or piece of music would you dedicate to the Ladies of Hive on our anniversary, and what makes it meaningful?
I would dedicate the song of one of my favorite singer Celine Dion. It's one of my favorite songs, I love it, whenever I hear it, feels something special, gives me kind of a boosting energy. The lyrics are very motivating and I feel it's a very apt song for all the ladies out here.
A little part of the song
I get wings to fly
Oh, oh, I'm alive
You've set my heart on fire
Filled me with love
Made me a woman on clouds above
I couldn't get much higher
My spirit takes flight
'Cause I am alive
Thanx for this wonderful community, which gives us all ladies a platform to express in so many ways.
Thank you for visiting my blog. 👼🏻👼🏻💖💖🌹🌺🌸

Patra ni Machi - I guess I have eaten a similar dish somewhere, but with different spices, I think. Even in Bangladesh, we follow the same process to prepare a fish dish, but we use different spices... Love the dish and would love to try it definitely...
There are many versions of it in different culture. You are right, there are variances of this recipe.
How can I forget a fellow Canadian Singer Celine Dion? Maybe I've been listening to alt-styled music for so long over contemporary pop. All her music have been played regularly over most radio stations for years. I so admire her combination of beauty and talent.
Happy 5th anniversary Ladies of Hive sister!
