Mother's Day Brunch Favorites🌸

Published 2 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader,

Mother's Day is coming soon, so I thought it would be fun to share a photo of my boys and I on Mother's Day from 2007. We were at my grandmother's house to celebrate the day with my family, and my boys had made me heart shaped pins that I'm wearing. Their handmade gifts at school were always my favorite!

My boys are 23 and 21 now, and I'm very proud of the men they've become. I was a stay-at-home mom, and I wouldn't trade those years with them for anything. They grew up too fast, and while I miss the days when they were younger, it's so much fun spending time with them now that they're older too :)

I've been thinking about all the special Mother’s Day brunches we've enjoyed over the years. Whether you're planning to celebrate mom, being celebrated yourself, or simply want to enjoy a delicious weekend meal, these brunch recipes will definitely make the occasion memorable.

Which of these Mother's Day favorites will you be trying? Hit reply and let me know!

Happy Mother’s Day,

Marcie

Grilled corn on the cob

Hi Reader, I'm super excited for the Fourth of July. We're going to a barbecue, so I'm going to bring a side...and probably something extra because that's how I am. 😉 I'm not sure which dish(es) I'll bring yet though -- I'm so torn! There are too many great options. For me, the side dishes steal the show. Potato and pasta salads, slaws, corn on the cob and cornbread muffins can definitely steal the show, and if you're like me, you're always on the lookout for exciting new recipes. I'm sharing...

Hi Reader, I'm in disbelief that we're over halfway through June already! I've had summer desserts on my mind A LOT lately (I've been especially craving fruit crisp!), so I thought I'd round up a collection of Fourth of July dessert ideas. They're all festive, they feed a crowd, and they can be made in advance. And there's no reason why you have to wait until the Fourth to make these. It's summer after all and these recipes make the most of it. :) Before we get to those, I've got a new recipe...
