Short on cash for Mother's Day? Why not surprise Mom with breakfast in bed?
"But Mom doesn't live with me!" you wail.
She doesn't have to! Why not make sure she's at home tomorrow. Get up early, drive over and produce this delicious breakfast. Grab some fruit and some wonderful bread and you're set!
Serve it in bed and allow just the two of you to reminisce, enjoying each other's company for awhile. Trust me, this will be treasured for some time despite your financial woes! In fact, you'll make one of the best memories that a trip out to breakfast won't compare.
