So, the restaurant that we usually go to for our Mother's Day brunch has relocated & downsized (it's now just a bar) so we needed to come up with a new plan. My mom suggested an outside (maybe inside depending on the weather) potluck here at our house (really it's her house we're renting & she's living where she couldn't host anything) so I agreed & am actually happy doing so.
My mom prefaced that I didn't need to go crazy or need *any* decorations but I told her that I simply could not do that & would do atleast a little SOMETHING. lol I think I have a number of things that I could easily use without an hassle, but thought I'd ask you ladies for some simple ideas to make it special for all us ladies, my grandmother, mom, MIL, and me.
My mom suggested that since she can't make anything she may pick up some fried chicken... I offered her my kitchen & she told me a potluck means people "bring what they want" lol... So I think something we'll probably have things like Chicken, potato salad (my MIL has a pretty yummy recipe) & foods along those lines if that makes a difference.
Here's some twine covered jars & a sweet arrangement my grandmother got me when I had P that I could use as a center piece... and I think I may steal the bunting/banner that @artbee is using for her lo's birthday party. I also still have 3 bags of ribbon that I didn't get to use at P's party!
Any other ideas?
