Brunch Shower?

Anyone have one of these?  My shower is going to be a brunch and I'm also hosting one for a friend the week after mine.  I do have alot of ideas for food, but I'm not sure what to do for her favors.  Any other ideas/suggestions welcome too!

    I will be attending a brunch shower in a few weeks. I've been to many brunches prior so I'm assuming it's eggs, toast, homfries, bacon, sausages, ham, omelets, french toast, pancakes, fruits, juices, mimosa (sp), etc. yummm now i'm hungry :)

    I would do tea or coffee favors. Or maybe even a coffee cup that people can use at the shower and then take with them.

    I had one. I love brunch. Especially if in summer since it can get hot in the afternoons. My hostess' made oatmeal chocolate chip cookie mixes in mason jars for favors.

    Favors: cut out cookies in cellophane bags with cute ribbon (get a cutout that goes with your theme); truffles; m&m's; homemade chocolate lollipops (again the mold should go with your theme); bag of apples with a apple recipe (cobbler, crisp, pie, sauce) - you can get the smallish brown craft bags at Michael's and decorate the outside with an apple stamp and fille with about 4-6 apples each; maple sugar candy, Christmas ornament (depending on the season)

    Food:

    my go to menu for a brunch shower:

    cheese/crackers, maybe shrimp cocktail or a veggie tray

    quiche - usually one veg and one with meat

    fruit kabobs or fruit salad

    Greek yogurt w/honey & granola on the side

    mini-muffins or scones

    chicken salad served with mini rolls

    mixed greens with raspberries/nuts/blue cheese - or any combo of fruit/nut and cheese with dressing

    dessert  - cupcakes, fruit tart, mini cheesecakes or cookies

    Drinks:

    orange juice, champagne (for mimosa's), Bloody Mary's, Sparkling water, coffee, tea, hot chocolate bar (seasonal)

    Most of the showers I've gone to were brunch showers, starting about 11am (any earlier is way tough for me, but 11 is okay).

     Staples:

    Egg bake or quiche, especially cute are mini quiches baked in muffin tins or you can even buy frozen ones

    sausage or bacon

    fresh fruit

    mimosas or OJ, punch, coffee

    My sister did this....mugs with tea packets and a little tag that said "a baby is brewing" or something like that.
