BRUNCH

If fixing mom breakfast in bed makes you cringe, then treat her (and yourself) to a Mother’s Day brunch. Try mimosas and omelets at the American bistro, Ila. This popular brunch spot specializes in “start your day” wonderful egg dishes but also rocks a mean pancake! Reservations are recommended.

But maybe mom is into loaded Bloody Mary’s in which case you’ll want to head out to Fishback & Stephenson Cider House. Their brunch menu ranges from breakfast tacos to omelets to waffles.  And of course, Bloody Mary’s that seem to be a meal in themselves. Cider House does not take brunch reservations so show up early and grab a blanket if you’d like to dine outside.

The French toast at the Riverside Family Restaurant gets raves reviews from every family member, especially Mom!

TEA PARTY

Gather the littles and some goodies from Bountiful Bakery and host a tea party for mom. The kids will love getting out the nice china and serving up a beautifully decorated cake or some flaky pastries while honoring their favorite person.

AT HOME SPA DAY

Load up a basket of bath bombs, herbal oils, floral bath salts and goodies from Thymely Solutions.  Then let mom hide herself away for a refreshing and rejuvenating home spa treatment. Cuz, you know, she deserves it!
