A Special Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is this Sunday. “Oh NO it’s this week!” as I looked at the calendar this morning.

Not to worry, we can handle this. It’s easy to make MOM feel special. Make sure she has a comfy chair at the table and serve her favorite foods that are the easiest to prepare or order her favorite take-out.

I know you’re thinking that’s not special enough.  Take it from ‘a mom in the know’,  Mom just wants to enjoy the day with family and have fun.

Oh, you could take Mom out to a special restaurant but it’s so crowded and usually the quality of food is not the best on such a busy Mother’s Day. Save that restaurant for a ‘just because we love you MOM day’ when no one else is celebrating.

To make day Mother’s Day special choose a sparkling wine.   Affordable Prosecco, Cava and Cuve come in varying styles from dry to sweet and are perfect to serve Mom on Mother’s Day. Choose dry for savory dishes and go a little sweet for desserts and chocolates.

These wines have crisp acidity with fizzy bubbles which helps to cut through the rich dishes and cleanse the palate making them very food friendly.

If you decide on a brunch menu of pancakes and mini muffins start off with Mimosas and give the kiddies orange juice and sparkling water.

Prepare a platter of fresh berries and fruits and hot coffee or tea and the day will be bright and sunny.

For Mom’s who like white wine a rich and buttery Chardonnay also goes great with cupcakes and creamy frosting. It’s what ‘a girl wants’, yes Mom is “That Girl”!
