Greetings, Crunch Crew! May is here and spring is in full swing. The weather is warmer, flowers are blooming, and we have lots to celebrate! There’s Cinco de Mayo, Memorial Day, and our favorite of all - Mother’s Day! Here at John Wm. Macy’s, we take pride in celebrating moms on Mother’s Day, and have put together a guide to throwing the perfect brunch to honor Mom!
A Moment for the Moms
Mother’s Day is observed on the second Sunday in May honoring moms across the country. Moms around the world give their all to their families every day. All of the late nights, the packing of lunches, and the sideline cheers from moms deserve to be celebrated. Whether you are a mom, have a mom, or know a mom, you have a reason to honor someone on this special day!
Set the Table with Mom’s Favorites
The most important part of a brunch is the food! Be sure to keep the guest of honor’s favorites in mind when preparing your menu. These Deviled Eggs with a Crunch are perfect for brunch and are sure to impress Mom! Our recipe for Italian Bruschetta is another great addition to brunch to satisfy your savory cravings!
One of our favorite dishes to prepare when entertaining is a charcuterie board! They’re super easy and customizable so you can incorporate all of your mom’s favorite bites! Don’t forget to add our John Wm. Macy’s Original Cheddar Cheesesticks or Rosemary & Cheddar Cheesecrisps as the perfect base for your board!
A Toast to Mom
A great addition to every Mother’s Day brunch is a mimosa bar! For this, you will need some champagne flutes, chilled champagne, and a selection of juices - we recommend orange, peach and cranberry. Set out your glasses, champagne, and juices on a small table or counter separate from your food. You can even pour your juices into small carafes or pitchers for an added touch!
We hope you enjoyed hearing our best tips and tricks for planning the perfect Mother’s Day brunch! Tag us on social media @johnwmmacys if you throw your own Mother’s Day Brunch, and let us know your favorite ways to honor your mom!
