Treats for Mum

IT’S MOTHERS DAY tomorrow — flowers, chocolates, mugs and pretty cards with cute little messages all have a feelgood factor and show our lovely Mums we are thinking of them on Mother’s Day but how about giving a real surprise?

Maybe show your appreciation with breakfast in bed or cooking even one fab dish for lunch or supper — you can’t imagine how thrilled us Mums are when we get a little surprise.

For breakfast in bed, always a delight, lay a little tray with a pretty cloth and a posy of flowers. You’ll need a nice pot of tea or coffee for a start and maybe some mini scones or muffins. They are really easy to make and look adorable. A glass of freshly squeezed orange or pink grapefruit is also a special treat, just cut the citrus fruit around the equator and squeeze — even one of those little plastic juicers will do the job perfectly.
