Make the most of Mother’s Day at home

Mother’s Day is a great time to take a moment to do something for your mum. It’s a time to thank her for everything she does you for and to show her how much she means to you. In this blog we’ll give you our suggestions on how to make your mum feel special this Mother’s Day.

Food to Impress

Instead of taking your mum out for a meal you could make her a meal from scratch. As it’s time to say goodbye to winter and hello to spring, we have chosen some recipes influenced by seasonal ingredients. Here are our top meal picks:

Purple sprouting broccoli, poached eggs & hollandaise – this is a recipe from BBC’s Good Food and would be perfect for a Mother’s Day brunch.

Egg-in-the-hole smoked salmon & avocado toastie – This is another recipe from BBC’s Good Food, this dish is quick and easy to make.

Chocolate Waffles –if you’re mum has a sweet tooth this recipe from The Food Network would certainly keep her happy!

Do something together

If you would rather get out and about with your mum here are a few of our ideas for something to do together.

Get outdoors and do something active or challenging together, this way you’ll have a sense of accomplishment. You could learn something new together by signing up for some form of class or lesson such as cooking. 

If you something more relaxing you could do either of the following.

Book your mum and yourself, in for a spa day, where you’ll be able to relax and be pampered. Go for afternoon tea, where you will be able to enjoy lovely food and drinks.
