Mothers Day Brunch: Treating a Mom in Style

We had impromptu Mothers Day brunch at our house on Saturday - and boy do we know how to treat a mom right?! First we put her to work helping make breakfast, then we made her help clean up and wash dishes, and to put a little extra 'you're special' icing on the cake I even polished off her Mother's Day mimosa for her because I thought it was Thors! 😄 Hah!

But it's not as bad as that! We actually had a great time (I think Mom will say so too if you ask her...probably). Photo evidence follows. 

The only downside of the morning: William wasn't feeling well. We were originally planning on going out for brunch, but he was feeling so poorly on the drive to breakfast that we decided to scrap that plan and make breakfast at our place instead. 

Buuuut - that meant a quick trip to the grocery, and then putting our free help (aka Mom) to work in the kitchen!

But she was in good company - AND she got to pick what we made. 

Thor slaving away on his infamous lemon ricotta pancake batter (except we made waffles this time).

We managed to pull together a nice table setting for Mom - complete with Mothers Day hootch. (just kidding - that's a scoby for kombucha that mom has been wanting me to harvest for her).

Bacon and chai tea with coconut milk - yum!

Waffles and strawberries. 

Success! Mom toasting a successful morning (before I stole her mimosa. an accident, I promise!)
