Celebrating Mom this Mother’s Day!

Where would we be without mom? She is there in the good times and difficult times. She nurtures us, supported us, loves us. We appreciate her 365 days a year.

But on Mothers Day, we can celebrate her!

Mothers Day is a time when we acknowledge her specialness and give her some well-deserved pampering, relaxation, and appreciation. A wonderful way to make the day special for her—and stress-free for you—is to let Catering by Michaels plan, cook, and deliver a marvelous brunch for your family and friends!

Our breakfast & brunch menu has a variety of options, including plenty of vegetarian, gluten-free, and healthy choices. You can choose a pre-planned package, such as European Delight, Magic Mediterranean, or Chicago Special.

Treat Mom to the Gift of Relaxation with Mother’s Day Brunch Catering

Moms do so much for us. They’re always willing to give advice (solicited or not!), always have a shoulder to cry on when things get tough, and best of all—they love us no matter what. Then there’s the fact that they’re the reason why we’re here in the first place!

With all of these things in mind, it only seems fair to give back on Mother’s Day. Moms give so much every day of the year—the least we can do is give them a day of relaxation and appreciation!

One way to show mom just how much she means to you is by organizing a Mother’s Day brunch in her honor. And just so mom doesn’t feel any pressure to cook or clean up on her special day, consider ordering a delicious delivered brunch from Catering by Michaels.

Below are a few brunch ideas, but as always, we can customize a menu based on mom’s favorites:
