Mother's Day


Mother's Day is right around the corner, and it's the perfect time to honor your mom with something delicious... and vegan.  I would be remiss if I did not thank my own mom every day for the love and support she has given me through the years.  I am grateful to the strong values she instilled in me, inspiring faith and courage to always stay true to myself, no matter what obstacles were strewn along the path.  Thank you, Mom, for helping me be the person I am today!

For those of you who are moms, I wish you a joyful Mother's Day to be shared with those you love.  I admire you for the heart and soul you put into every moment of raising beautiful, happy, compassionate children.  You are truly blessed.

Mother's Day is also a time to think about the rest of the animal kingdom, all of whom have mothers who show the same tireless dedication to their offspring.  This Mother's Day, please take a moment to recognize the unique bond between mothers and children of all species.

And now, for the recipes!

Care2.com Mother's Day Brunch - When you start off with a Spinach and Strawberry Salad and end with a Fresh Peach Bellini, I can't imagine a more  lovely Mother's Day brunch menu.  Yum!

Eat Drink Better - Think it can't get any better than the previous brunch menu, well the bloggers at Eat Drink Better have even more creative ideas.  Take a look and drool!

VegWeb - TONS of recipe ideas here.  And I mean TONS.  They have handy little menus (from which  I'm sure to get my inspiration for mom's special day) as well as gift-giving ideas for the sustainable you, like green bouquets and vegan chocolates.  I think I may have to give those Fluffy Coconut Waffles a try (anything described as "fluffy" is good by me).

MisoVegan - Another blogger with some creative ideas for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  Makes me want to have all three!

VegNews - Forget about the brunch... how about a Mother's Day Soiree?  Sounds fancy, but VegNews makes it easy with some helpful How-To tips and mom's "Must Haves."

Allison's Gourmet - If your mom has a sweet tooth, this is the place to go.  Order chocolate truffles, caramels, brownies... or a gift basket you can mix and match to create the perfect vegan treasure for your mom.
