How to honor Mom this Mother's Day.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Mothers Day is quickly approaching. With many people out of work and struggling to makes ends meet, it may not be possible to treat Mom to a nice Mothers Day dinner at a restaurant. No problem, there is a way to really make Mothers Day special while sticking to a strict budget.

  2. Step 2

    First, plan on cooking a Mothers Day dinner at home. In addition, a nice bouquet of Roses would really be a nice surprise. You don't have to spend a fortune on Roses. You can purchase a dozen Red or Yellow Roses at a discount farmers market for about $8. These Roses look just as good as if you were to spend $75. Next, plan on a special dinner for Mother for mid-afternnon on Mother Day.

  3. Step 3

    You could prepare a delicious Lamb Chop dinner for about $25. In addition, Idaho Baked Potatoes with Butter & Sour Cream would make an excellent and tasty side. For your veggie, you couls serve Corn, or French Cut Green Beans. A nice bottle of Chardonnay can be purchased for about $7. As far as dessert goes, you could serve something like Cheese Cake or Layer Cake. Eating at home is so much nicer than dining out and it saves a great deal of money.
