Mother's Day is on Sunday. If you're stumped for ideas on how to celebrate Mom, you’ve come to the right place.
1. Start with somewhere nice for brunch.
- Ella's Table — This spot inside the historic Inn at Carnall Hall on the University of Arkansas campus has fantastic breakfast basics a la carte and not-so-basics, like duck confit potato hash.
Where: 465 N. Arkansas Ave. in Fayetteville
- Emelia's Kitchen — The menu includes a range of omelets, scrambles and eggs Benedicts. It’s on Dickson Street, so you can walk to local shops afterward.
Where: 309 W. Dickson St. in Fayetteville.
- Mirabella's Table — You pay a flat fee of $20 for the carousel kitchen brunch that includes menu items that remind you you're at an Italian restaurant, like the brunch pizza.
Where: 4200 S. 48th St., Suite 10 in Rogers
- Crabby's Seafood Bar & Grill — There's no rule that says you can't have seafood at breakfast. The menu features a crab and lobster omelet and a Benedict with crab cakes.
Where: 1800 S. 52nd St. in Rogers.
Where: 100 NW 2nd St., Suite 100
2. Flowers are classic. Here are three local deals.
- This Pigmint arrangement with lavender, cream and pink tones for $65.
- A variety of bouquets ranging from $40-$95 at Matkins Flowers and Greenhouse.
- Or pick from yellow, purple and pink arrangements at Just Petaling ranging from $55-$120.
3. Do something fun together
- Miranda Lambert and Little Big Town tickets as low as $30 are still on sale. The show is 7pm on Mother’s Day at the Walmart Arkansas Music Pavilion.
- Pink House Alchemy and Sip of Southern are hosting a Mother’s Day Tea Party at Pink House Alchemy on College Avenue in Fayetteville. Tickets range from $50-$60 and are available online.
- Admission is free for mothers and mother figures at Botanical Gardens of the Ozarks in Fayetteville on Sunday. And they get a potted succulent while supplies last.
