[CONTEST ALERT] A Mother's Day treat from Mcdonald's

In my family, there are certain dates that we give just as much regard and importance to like a regular holiday. In fact, we celebrate and look forward to it more than most legal holidays. This includes our birthdays and two special days wherein we treat our parents like royalty -- Mother's Day and Father's Day.

Mother's Day is a week away and despite our very hectic work schedule, my sister and I are busy planning on what we will do for our dear Mommy on her special day. It's one day where Mommy is required to sit back, relax and leave everything up to us. Our sweet Papa would always prepare a greeting card for Mommy where both my sister and I would include our short messages in. Either for lunch or dinner, we would go out not only with Mommy but with my Amah (grandmother) as well. After all their hard work and intense labor, one day is truly not enough for us to show our utmost gratitude and undying love for them.

Still planning on where and what to do on Mother's Day? Why not jump-start the day with a surprise breakfast treat for her? Our favorite go-to place is our favorite childhood place (and that of millions of kids out there too) -- McDonald's! A quick call to their delivery hotline allows us to enjoys more precious hours in bed as we wait for our favorite McDonald's breakfast treat to be delivered right at our doorstep.

For us, breakfast should always be a feast. I remember waking up early when I was younger as we would drive out for a hearty breakfast meal -- be it some dimsum and congee or a plate of Daing na Bangus complete with salted eggs, tomatoes and garlic rice! Dad would always read the papers as he drinks his cup of coffee while my sister and I would always have our own glass of Orange Juice.

For our birthdays, breakfast is made even more special! Mommy would wake up extra early to cook some Birthday Misua. Mind you, the preparation for this dish is really tedious as it consists of a lot of ingredients and she would always complain how hard it is to evenly mix the noodles and meat together.  Despite all the hassle that Mommy has to go through for this, not a single birthday has passed without her cooking a potful of Birthday Misua for us to enjoy. You can truly feel her love in every bite.

Here I am spreading the love again! In line with Mother's Day, I would like to give five (5) lucky readers the chance to surprise their Moms on her special day with a McDonald's breakfast treat!
