1. Reserve Your Spot for a Delicious Brunch

ANY TIME | MULTIPLE LOCATIONS

Mother’s Day and brunch go together like eggs and bacon, which is why this non-event has made the list. This week, we dropped a list of what we consider to be some of the best brunch spots in Milwaukee. Make a reservation and treat your mom to a wonderful meal that comes with high recommendations. 

2. Mother’s Day Wine, Cheese & Chocolate

FRIDAY AT 8 P.M. | VIRTUAL EVENT 

This virtual event is hosted by Indulgence Chocolatiers. You pick up your kit in advance, and then Julie Waterman will lead you and your mom through a tasting and pairing over Facebook live. Each kit includes three bottles of wine and enough cheese and confections for four people to enjoy ($80).
