many thanks, mama

Mother's Day is two days away, which is why I traveled to California to spend time with my family. I know my Sunday will consist of a yummy brunch at Soho House, giving gifts, and perhaps some mimosas. The most important part of the day will be celebrating the two ladies in my life: my mom, and my sister, who is a recent mom to my feisty seven-month-old nephew.

However you spend your day, make sure to smother your mom with love and treat her to some nice gifts. You still have time to shop for a few goodies, if you haven't yet.

1. Revitalizing Home Candle by Green & Spring. Add a pleasant scent to her home with this yummy smelling candle. The little bird is a nice decorative touch.
2. Mini Tiered Cakelet Pan by William-Sonoma. My family is full of bakers, so this mini-pan cake is perfect for special occasions, or just when you're feeling cuisine creative.
3. Gwendolyn Tote by Tory Burch. Every mom needs a large tote for everyday needs!
4. New Mom Make A Wish Necklace by Dogeared. Send best wishes with this necklace.
5. Sex and the City-The Complete Series. Sometimes a woman needs to kick back and catch up with her four girlfriends, Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda.
6. Certified Organic Pure Shea Butter by L'Occitane. With all the work these ladies do, a little moisture will soften those hands right up.
7.'Mention' Flat by Jeffrey Campbell. Comfy flats are necessary when you run around all day.
 8. Summer Lemons Glass Set by Crate & Barrel. My mom is an entertainer, and these lemon tumblers would go perfectly with her lemonade pitcher.
