Today, I pieced together a roundup post for you, my dear family and friends. It's a variety of brunch recipe ideas to help ease your special Mother’s Day brunch prep. Preparedness is probably the best thing you can do for any celebration. It is a stress-eliminator. By planning ahead of time and getting most ingredients purchased well before needed (except for perishables like fresh produce) you minimize crowd-zigzagging shopping chaos and saving that energy for the cooking day.
I'm sad to say, I don’t have a mom to do something like this for. I lost her at the early age of nineteen. She absolutely adored special celebrations such as this: an honorary day full of relaxation, appreciation, and tons of delicious food she did not work to make.
Between my sisters, daughters, and I, we would probably make all of these recipes, and recount her many wonderful deeds to make her feel special, honored, and appreciated. We can only reminisce about her now. My girls are very curious about the awesome grandmother they never met. In a small way, my siblings and I also get to revisit our childhood experiences with her in an evening of nostalgia.
“Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.” Exodus 20:12
One of the best, clear-cut ways to prove your honor and cherish of your mother is through action. Surprise her with something special made specifically by you - especially for her. Tell her, and show her, how much you appreciate her. No matter how old you are, and how old your mom is, she will be absolutely smitten. She really is and always will be that special person in our lives. Honor her while you can. Happy Mother's Day, friends!
