What makes for a perfect Mother’s Day Brunch? Cocktails and sweets, of course!
Usually there’s only one foodie-type holiday a month. New Years. Valentine’s. St. Patty’s. Thanksgiving. You get the idea.
But May has a multitude: Mother’s Day, my birthday, Memorial Day… Oh, my birthday isn’t on your list? 😉
We start the month off honoring moms with breakfasts, brunches, and lunches, and we close May out with the official kick off to summer. Although I wouldn’t mind if summer just kicked itself off now, with open pools and fired up grills. The 90 degrees can hold off though.
Anyways, what better way to honor mom than giving her a shift off of meal prep? {Ok, perhaps a weekend off or {amd?} a massage would top that.} But let’s at least start with a nice breakfast. Better yet, brunch, so mom can sleep in. {ha.}
Here are are 12 of my favorite brunch-esque recipes that would be perfect for Mother’s Day, or any special occasion. From scones to cinnamon rolls and even some {ok a lot of} brunch-appropriate cocktails, here you go!

Happy Mother’s Day to my momma and all my momma friends out there!
I didn’t share any links with you last weekend because I was too busy attending derby parties and birthday parties- not a bad reason to step away from the computer, right?
Well this weekend I’m going to keep it short and sweet because my mom is here with me {yay}!
So here you go:
Reading
This recipe completely intrigues me. Although adding my favorite wine to anything is a win in my book.
Combine 3 of the best tastes and put them into one drink… YES PLEASE.
These sound right up my alley. Although I would completely defeat the purpose and at least double the recipe.
Perhaps my favorite read of the week, 10 Things I Really F’in Want For Mother’s Day. Sorry I never got you any of these things, mom. Husband, it’s not too late…
Writing
The life of an allergy mom.
Can you really get fit with just 3 minutes of exercise a week?
The chicken and the egg: weight & personality
One thing you may not have thought of when you were house hunting.
Colic & migraines?
How many miles is that cheeseburger?
