Mother’s Day Brunch


Mother’s Day is quickly approaching and there’s still time to prepare to make mom feel extra special!  Sure you can book reservations for a nice brunch, but why not do one for her at home?  Think about some of mom’s favorite foods and start planning your menu from there.  For instance, my mom’s favorite food is blueberry pancakes, so I’ll be serving a blueberry lovers breakfast including; blueberry pancakes, muffins and a blue-mosa (sparkling blueberry juice & champagne).  I’ll also throw in some basic breakfast foods, eggs, bacon, potatoes, etc, but that little attention to detail of mom’s favorite foods will go a long way.  You don’t need to be at the Ritz to make mom feel like a million bucks.  Break out the nice tablecloth, napkins and china…throw together a bright colored floral arrangement, or cylinders with fresh colorful fruit, and voila!  A Mother’s Day brunch that is affordable, from the heart and memorable for mom.  Happy Mother’s Day everyone!
