Top 10 Gifts for Mom on Mother's day!! #1

1: Like all holidays Mother's day has become commercialized. So my number one gift would be time...just spend some time with your mom and not just on Mothers day- everyday! After all everyday should be Mother's day!
Even though it has been commercialized:
  • Mother's Day continues to this day to be one of the most commercially-successful U.S. occasions. According to the National Restaurant Association, Mother's Day is now the most popular day of the year to dine out at a restaurant in the United States.
  • According to IBISWorld, a publisher of business research, Americans will spend approximately $2.6 billion on flowers, $1.53 billion on pampering gifts—like spa treatments—and another $68 million on greeting cards.

Your mother deserves something whether it be flowers or even a home made cake...it's the thought and she deserves it!!

5:Take her out for a sundae in NYC!!!!!



Visit Serendipity 3and order the Golden Opulence Sundae


“Made with 5 scoops of the richest Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream infused with Madagascar vanilla and covered in 23 carat edible gold leaf, the sundae is drizzled with the world’s most expensive chocolate, Amedei Porcelana, and covered with chunks of rare Chuao chocolate, which is from cocoa beans harvested by the Caribbean Sea on Venezuela’s coast.
The masterpiece is suffused with exotic candied fruits from Paris, gold dragets, truffles and Marzipan Cherries. It is topped with a tiny glass bowl of Grand Passion Caviar, an exclusive
dessert caviar, made of salt-free American Golden caviar, known for its sparkling golden color. It’s sweetened and infused with fresh passion fruit, orange and Armagnac.
The sundae is served in a baccarat Harcourt crystal goblet with an 18K gold spoon to partake in the indulgence served with a petite mother of pearl spoon and topped with a gilded
sugar flower by Ron Ben-Israel.”
