Well I guess the possibility of giving mom an Hawaiian vacation this Mother's Day seems slim then why not bring the surf and sunshine feel to her with and Hawaiian Breakfast in Bed.



Say Aloha Mom!!


She will enjoy the tropical omelet infused with pineapples and Monterey jack cheese, the Hawaiian toast also topped with sweet pineapples and she may even enjoy the Hawaiian muffins umm umm good macadamia nuts and crushed pineapples. To finish she will be delighted sipping her Pineapple Iced Tea!



Tip: Serve the Hawaiian breakfast with one or two tropical flowers and maybe create an Hawaiian Scrapbook filled with pictures of this beautiful island to look at while enjoying her breakfast.
