Breakfast Charcuterie Board - Just in time for Mother's Day

You know the memes and jokes about breakfast in bed for moms on Mother's Day?  Dad and the kids make an enormous mess in the kitchen for mom to clean up.  I'm not saying moms don't want breakfast, they just want to take is easy for one day.  Well what some of us want is a dark, cool hotel room and a glass or two of wine and not having to wipe any noses or make any decisions.  But we will all settle for a hearty, beautiful breakfast or brunch board featuring minimal mess and easy clean up.  Not only is this ideal for a Mother's Day Brunch, but this board idea would easily work for a bridal or baby shower, and of course a morning tailgate.  Football season will be here before we know it.  Go ahead and bookmark this now to enjoy with gameday mimosas.  When I made this board, I made it only for Mr. Devilish Dish and I, and we actually enjoyed it for dinner on a chilly Sunday night.  It's not quite as full as I would make a board were I feeding a crowd or taking it to a tailgate, but you get the basic idea for the breakfast/brunch theme.


This fun board works great for any
Mother's Day breakfast or brunch...

I tried making homemade biscuits until
I realized my baking powder was expired...
UGH.

This was more of a mini-board for the two
of us.  I would pile this thing FULL for 
shower or morning tailgate.

I love the idea of having jellies for a sweet biscuit
topping and ham and cheese for a savory option.

We added some fried bacon and also some cubed
up cinnamon rolls, but mini muffins would be
cute too.  The sky is the limit!
