Top 10 Mother's Day Gifts
Top 10 Mother’s Day Gifts
Written by shem on March 21, 2011So it’s nearly that time of year again where we all throw uber amounts of love at the lady who brought us into the world… our Mums! Yep that’s right. Let’s lay aside the fact that there isn’t a Children’s Day of which I feel is completely out of order… and I’m not bitter… at all…honest! However I digress… Tis the season to show all mummies out there how loved they are whether it’s with a high five or a massive bunch of flowers!
The trick is finding the perfect present which best says how you feel. If you give your mum a card you bagged at the petrol station down the road 2 minutes before you got to the house, then 10 out of 10 for effort and luck my friend, but you might as well have not bothered and simply expelled gas from your bottom as that will probably contain more sentiment! Why not enter our competition to win some great prizes in excess of £700 for your mum! But if you’re not that lucky, here are my top 10 Mother’s Day pressies for those who are null and void of ideas to treat your Ma!
1. Flowers
With this you can’t go wrong at all. Mums love a bouquet of smelly pollen ridden flowers to brighten up their day or cause hayfever! So pick up a fancy fresh bunch from your local florist or have some delivered straight to your mum. Simples! Check out Interflora for great promos and deals… gowan!2. Chocolates
This is another old skool idea for a gift. Everyone loves a bit of chocolate and I don’t mean a Kit Kat Chunky from your local corner shop! Put a bit of imagination into it! You can indulge in great bundles of choco good times from Thorntons for example. They offer a whole host of sweets from fudge to sugar free treats!3. Gift Vouchers
This may be seen as the lazy option for a mother’s day gift, but for those picky mums out there who always ask you if you have the receipt when you hand over that fab cardigan which brings out the colour of their eyes… gift vouchers win all day every day!4. Personalised Photobooks
Memories are fabulous things… and memories can be captured in photos which then can be displayed in a book to keep forever! So collate some great family snaps and head over to such websites like Photobox or Snapfish and get down with your creative self!5. Personalised Cards
Yes you can head down to your local card shop and pick up a generic Mother’s Day card, or you can create a totally unique one especially for your mum! Add the personal touch with your ma’s name or edit the card to make it specific to a personal joke perhaps! Check out Moonpig who offer a massive range of designs for every occasion.6. Dinner
Your mum has been cooking your tea for years now so wouldn’t it be nice to take her out for a slap up meal! Make the effort and don’t just take her down to your local for a packet of pork scratchings, but dine at one of her favourite restaurants perhaps. Huge brownie points my friend!7. Musical Theatre or a Play
Add a dash of culture this mother’s day and take your mum out to see the latest show in the West End perhaps. There is always something on which should suit all tastes, so grab some tickets from Ticket Master or check out the latest deals from Theatre Tickets Direct for example. Winner!8. Jewellery
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend… but this is your mum and that is weird! However you can treat your mother to a nice bit of bling in the shape of a pendant perhaps which has a pic of you inside, or maybe a fancy watch like in the prize bundle we are giving away! Visit H Samuel for an array of goodies to get your mum all over excited!9. Hamper
This is fast becoming a sought after present and it includes a colourful collection of treats to make your mum smile! Choose from food hampers, wine or chocolates depending on what floats your mum’s boat! With a bit of fancy gift wrapping you will definitely be golden child!10. DVD Boxsets
All mums are ‘into’ something on telly whether that is 24, Downton Abbey or the complete series of the A Team! You can grab a boxset of your mum’s fave show from Amazon or even ASDA Entertainment and then extend the love by watching it with her on a Friday night! Great company and great TV… everyone’s a winner!

Is Dating Your Best Friend a Good Idea? - Marie Claire
Dear lovelies:
Ah, the weekend! Being away was so good! We hiked; we swam in the Hudson River at a private swimming spot; we made fires; we sat in the hot tub and looked out at the nature preserve the house we'd rented was on. We drove underneath a small bridge and then trekked through the trees around it to reach a waterfall, where we hopped into the water and put our heads under the rapids. We went to a few yard sales (and I got some amazing stuff). We had cook-outs on the grill, made fires and roasted marshmallows, watched movies before bed. We listened to Sam Cooke, Patsy Cline and Department of Eagles (along with a mix that Arlo Pumpernickel made me for the trip). It was a gorgeous, idyllic, relaxing weekend--and the company was hard to beat. (Kermie Ottawa was there, among others, with his incredibly sweet new-ish girlfriend, a yoga teacher and massage therapist; as soon as she heard about names like Sir Hugo and Sean O'Shaughnessey--not to mention Arlo Pumpernickel--she wanted a pseudonym of her own.)
Among the attendees was good ol' Jake Stein. Those of you who have been reading the blog from the get-go might recall that Jake and I were best of friends for a year (while we were living in D.C.) ... and then we tried to date each other for a while, which wasn't such a great idea. Luckily, though, we were able to go back to being friends again afterwards.
Jake is hilariously funny, whip-smart and incredibly sweet. He's a guy's guy--he loves to drink beer and watch soccer games; to go to rock concerts and play pick-up football; to attend bachelor parties and stay out late at parties. But he's also a girl's guy, in the sense that he has a lot of patience for talk about the vagaries of love and relationships; he's a compassionate and careful listener, who's also perfectly good at offering up good, juicy stories from his own life; and he even likes to read the Weddings section of The New York Times!
All weekend, he had us cracking up constantly. For instance, at one point, when I first appeared before the group in my new Baywatch-red bathing suit, I said, "Is it just me, or do I look kind of Baywatch in this get-up?" Without missing a beat, Jake said, "Right color. Wrong tits." (I'm not exactly well-endowed in the breast-al area.)
I wish I could better describe Jake's hilarity, for the sake of your giggling enjoyment ... but for the moment, I hope it will suffice to say that once he gets me laughing, it's often days before I stop.
Jake just got engaged to a wonderful person (although his fiancee wasn't able to make the weekend away with us, because she was spending the weekend with her mother and sister). The romance unfolded perfectly naturally: They hit it off right away, quickly became exclusive, and moved in together before a year had passed. The engagement came shortly afterwards--and he seems so happy and contented with the relationship. Over the weekend, Jake was saying, "It's always just so smooth and easy with her. We never fight." I am confident that the two of them are the loves of each other's lives.
When Jake and I were dating, on the other hand, things were not so easy. We didn't really fight, but there was a lot of tension--and maybe part of the pressure was my conviction that if things didn't work out between us, it would be a sure sign that I was inherently unloveable ...
Anyway, more about all this tomorrow--when I'll also (continue to) discuss the related question of chemistry. That strange, strange thing.

What is the Best Valentine's Day Gift Ever? | Psychology Today
We subscribe to the old adage that the best things in life are free. Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to cost a dime of your hard-earned money during these trying economic times. Valentine’s Day, in the end, is all about love. It is about serving breakfast in bed to the one you love. It is about giving the gift of time instead of lavish or expensive gifts.
Don’t over-emphasize the importance of giving THINGS. In the end, the greatest Valentine’s gift of all to the one you love is the gift of your time. Our research on six continents of the world and in 45 countries over these past three decades completely supports this notion.
So, who is the love of your life on this Valentine’s Day? What do you plan to do to express your love to the one you love? Will it be an expensive affirmation of love? Or, will you give the gift of time? Will it be roses or will it be a romantic evening together? Will it be candy or will it be a hand made card with sentiments all your own? Will it be dinner out or will it be a romantic dinner made especially by you served by candlelight? The choice is yours.
Always remember, every day is a day of sunshine when you are with the one you love. Valentine’s Day reminds us why our soul mate, our lover, and our best friend is the one we most want to spend our time with and to share our life with.
In the end, there is nothing more important in a loving relationship than the gift of time. Give the one you love this special gift today. You will not regret it. Make this your best Valentine’s ever!

Best Friend Necklace

"Best friend is like a four leaf clover, hard to find, lucky to have" - sex and the city
Best friend necklaces are popular not only for their fashion and style but also signify a deep bond between two people. Best Friend Necklaces are the exquisite choice to signify an winsome, everlasting friendship between you and your bff. No one knows you better than your BFF. She is there when you are happy, she is there when you are sad. She is your best listener when you need.A best friend gives the opinion you usually care most about. A best friend is the one who tells you the things you absolutely need to hear regardless of whether you want to hear it or not. A best friend is the person you usually can be around always and never get sick of. A best friend is someone you don't envy, and is the person you are grateful to have as a friend. A best friend is the one who will forgive you always, even when you've screwed up so bad. And a best friend is the one who even though you may have drifted apart from, when the time comes for them to hug you or congratulate you on an accomplishment or to console you on a loss.. they are the number one person you want to see, always because they are the person you've confided the most in and they are the person who knows you.
Shouldn't you appreciate them with a gift? A gift of good luck, perhaps?
Who couldn’t use more luck? The four-leaf clover is one of the best known good luck charm in the West. A four leaf clover occurs once in about 10,000 clovers due to a genetic defect so a gift of a four leaf clover is a truly special. A lucky clover only occur once in about 10,000 shamrock or three leaf clovers. Each leaf on a clover has a special meaning representing faith, hope, love, and luck. Other thought the leaves stands for fame, wealth, health, and love. In Irish tradition, a Shamrock supposedly represents the Holy Trinity – The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit. If a lucky clover is found, then the fourth leaf is considered to bring God’s Grace.
Best Friend Necklaces are the perfect choice to signify an endearing, lasting friendship between you and your best friend.
