Mother's Day is this Sunday and if you haven't already gotten something for Mom, have no fear, we've got some great last-minute ideas for you!
Flowers are always a favorite with women, especially moms. Pick some from the garden, visit the farmers market, or head to your local grocer. You're sure to find some gorgeous in-season blooms that Mom will love. We particularly love tulips this time of year, not only do they smell good they are so bright and colorful!
Get cooking! Whether it's breakfast in bed, a lunchtime barbeque, or a mouthwatering dessert, moms can appreciate the time and effort you put into making something yummy. This Creamy Peach Tart from Food & Wine Magazine comes out looking good and tasting even better (I added strawberries for a pop of color, but any fruit in season should work just as well)! For the cooking-challenged, boxed cake mix or brownies are super easy to make and still are homemade!
Give the gift of giving. Depending on what causes are near and dear to your momma's heart, a donation to her favorite charity or organization is a wonderful gesture. Mom will appreciate your thoughtfulness and be so proud to have raised such a generous kid. If it isn't obvious, we are partial towards rescue groups and shelters; the Petfinder Foundation is definitely on of our favorites!

Last but not least, don't forget any dog mama's out there either! A yummy treat, an extended trip to the dog park, or some belly scratches should do just fine.
Hopefully this list has given some of you procrastinators (myself included) some good ideas! What did you get your mom? Leave us a comment below!
