So my sibling asked me what I was getting my mom, and I said that I was going to make her breakfast and a cake/mini cheesecakes, and then he was going are you serious? I'm worried now. Is it okay to make my mom food for mother's day or is it too cheap since I'm not buying her anything?

what's wrong with making something? unless your mom really cares about getting a material gift, then I think it should be fine.

^Dang, you must be really talented O__O

It's definitely okay to make food for your mom on mother's day.
It'll be a great surprise to her too.
It's like eating a meal that was prepared for you by the one you love. ^^
She'll love it even if it because it was made by you!

I think it's a great idea smile.gif

I'd probably cook something too come to think of it.

My cooking's average. It's not amazing but it doesn't taste terrible.

this isn't a bad idea. i think something handmade is more meaningful than something readily bought at the store, especially food. i'm planning on making a dinner for my mom :]

I think it's fine. I was going to do that as well. Since I don't have a job yet and she always complains when I buy her something. "My money is your money" The problem now, though, is WHAT I'm going to cook.

i think it's a good idea and that your mom would like it, just as long as it you clean up the kitchen afterwards lol.

It is a good idea. My siblings and i always make my mom breakfast in bed. Plus my mom hates it when we buy her "useless" gifts.

Just make sure to clean up afterwards. ;]

^ yeah i always do it too. except this year is my last year so i might treat her to a spa or something.

but

usually if this is like your first time cooking. i would go coffee, french toast. with a rose/flower and give it on a tray when she wakes up! pretty easy. and you can't screw up. plus you don't have much to clean up. and you can add a salad or something. b/c it's not that hard to toss vegetables into a bowl.

I have a salad dressing recipe that I really like to make b/c it's simple and easy. if you want, pm me and i'll give it to you.

i think cake is rather heavy for morning. but that might be just me.

lol. I meant it would be a dessert after dinner smile.gif
But I'm not making cake anymore since we just had cake yesterday.
I'm going to make Alton Brown's french toast for breakfast and maybe an omelete, and later throughout the day- black sesame dumplings: http://rasamalaysia.com/black-sesame-dumpl...=400#image-2819 , chinese greens with oyster sauce: http://rasamalaysia.com/restaurant-style-c...se-greens-with/ , and broccoli: http://mochachocolatarita.blogspot.com/200...ribs-spicy.html
