Happy Mother’s Day!

May 7, 2016 by Melissa

To all of the mothers, moms-to-be and moms at heart, Happy Mother’s Day. I hope you feel loved and appreciated, not just today, but everyday. 

I can’t thank my husband and my little buddy enough for making me a mama. It is my greatest joy and it has been a wonderful adventure thus far. I love you more than anything. 

Ok. So if you didn’t get that special mom in your life a present (it’s ok, there’s always ordering via Amazon Prime and saying “it’ll be here Tuesday! Promise!”), stop and go make a card…

Now that that’s done. You may need a special recipe or two, right? I’ve gotcha covered. 

No Bake Butterfinger Cheesecakes – dessert?! Yes! And its’s no-bake, so you’ll be done making it before you know it. You can just go ahead and give her both portions.

Chocolate Dipped Coconut Truffles – seriously, making your own truffles is SO easy. She’ll totally flip for these!

Oatmeal Cookie Granola – Granola is a golden idea for breakfast or brunch! Make a batch of granola, and set up a pretty breakfast with yogurt, granola, berries and some juice! And, if it’s for me, you bet there better be coffee!

The BEST Oatmeal Raisin Cookies – and since mom is the best, aren’t these just perfect? Yes.

Ok and then some of the other amazing recipes I’ve seen around the internet that would be perfect to whip up for mom are…

This Lemon Chicken Risotto…um, dying!
This Chili Lime Mango Chicken! Yes please. 
Beef Curry with Sweet Garden Peas?! Are you drooling yet?
12 Guilt Free Desserts! Moms feel guilty enough and we really just want dessert!

And I know there are dozens more, but I think you’ll be golden with any and all of these. 
Lastly but MOST importantly, if you are lucky enough to still have your mom in your life, give her a hug or give her a call on the phone (not a text). Tell her how much you love her. It’s important.
