Easy Mother’s Day Recipes 2019. Spoil your mom with brunch, sides, appetizers, dinner, dessert, and of course, drinks!

Although Trevor and I don’t have kids yet – we’ve got one cookin’ in the oven right now – we’ve still decided that we should celebrate Mother’s Day and Father’s Day this year.

Yay!

We can’t wait to spoil each other. And of course, the best way we know how? With food! Today, I’m putting my feet up while Trevor and Teddy pamper me all day. 😉 Don’t worry, Trevor will get his own special day to celebrate in June.
