The Breakfast and Brunch Express, Issue #13 Mother's Day Brunch Menu

Hello!

This month: A Special Mother's Day Brunch Menu

With Mother's Day just around the corner for many of you, I wanted to share some recipes that are fairly quick and easy to make that can turn an ordinary breakfast or brunch into something a bit more special.

Being a mom myself to a wonderful young boy, Mother's Day has become more meaningful and I began wondering just how long this tradition has been going on. Much to my surprise, Mother's Day has been a long time tradition dating as far back as the ancient Greeks and Romans.

This well written article goes into the history of Mother's day. It is not just a Hallmark Holiday, but has a long history going back many centuries. A wonderful history of Mother's Day

Here is another very good article on the history of Mother's Day: Mother's Day History

A Helpful Hint:

Add a little sugar to the boiling water when cooking corn on the cob; salt toughens the kernels.
