Your Mom

mothers-day2012

Mother's Day is almost here, so I'm posting a round-up of some gift ideas for the mama in your life.

1. How about a pair of neon ballet flats. She'll be the brightest mom on the block.

2. This heavy cream is almost as awesome as actual heavy cream. I should know; I rub it all over my face daily (and nightly.)

3. Ina Garten (my hero) always says to use good vanilla. So make sure your Mom has some in her cupboard.

4. The ultimate cookbook. This might become her bible. Lucky you if it does.

5. Beeswax candles for her next dinner party.

6. Give the keys to the Mom van a makeover with this cute Kate Spade keychain.

Happy Mom's Day, ya'll!

Ahhh....My great grandfather is one of the founders of Nielsen-Massey! Their vanilla is the ABSOLUTE best!! So cool that you featured it. I'll have to tell my grandma! And great suggestions for mother's day. I have a mother's day post going up tomorrow and would love for you to check it out!

Oh my gosh...YES!! I am a fellow Ina Garten fanatic! I love how she always add, "How easy was that?" and smiles. She also gets so happy cooking for Jeffery, which in turn makes me happy :)
Great picks!
