On Motherโ€™s Day

By May 10, 2012October 2nd, 201365 Comments

What the heck? No Motherโ€™s Day post on DALS this year? Thatโ€™s because I posted on Bon App on Tuesday all about how we donโ€™t really celebrate it. I know, not very helpful. If you are like most normal people and in the market for a kick-ass brunch main dish, check out this baked cinnamony French toastย from the always-reliable Deb at Smitten Kitchen. If I celebrated Motherโ€™s Day, thatโ€™s definitely what Iโ€™d want in the middle of my peony-strewn brunch table. That, and a copy of Dinner: A Love Story, naturally.

Haveย a great weekend!

    My favorite thing to make on Motherโ€™s Day is Monkey Bread/Pull-apart bread. I see Motherโ€™s Day as an excuse to eat something totally decadent and sinful.

    Also, I read your newsletter, do I win the Jane Marvel tote?

    I think weโ€™re doing a cook-out for Motherโ€™s Day. No crowded restaurant, and I donโ€™t have to cook, so it works for me.

    This will be my last Motherโ€™s Day orchestrating the celebrations for my own mother, because of July 31st (ish) I will offically be a mother myself. ๐Ÿ˜€ That means I will make/buy my mom a special treat and kick my feet up with her.

    As my guys donโ€™t cook, if I want anything special for Motherโ€™s Day food, itโ€™ll be something I pick up myself (so at least I donโ€™t cook). Itโ€™ll be my first motherโ€™s day and Iโ€™m looking forward to it!

    PS โ€“ Iโ€™m like you. Iโ€™d prefer dinner to brunch anyday! But, if someone else is cooking, Iโ€™ll happily eat anything!

    Hmmm, French Toast. That sounds like a yummy idea.

    We have developed the tradition of doing a picnic lunch for motherโ€™s day. I get to pick the treats and the place. Itโ€™s great because my toddler can run around without me stressing about bothering other people in a resturant and yet we get out of the house for something a bit different and special.

    P.S. I will be looking in your archives for a nice brunch item to make for my family. Thanks again!

    So funny since we just decided to have brunch at my house, so therefore Iโ€™m cooking (instead of my mom or sister) and Iโ€™m making a cinnamon challah french toast casserole! Iโ€™ll have to check out Smitten Kitchen (which I love) for any helpful hints:)
