Mother's Day Gifts

This is a typical day of most busy moms; getting the kids ready for school, sporting events, cooking dinner extra curricular activities alone, keep us very busy and on the go.

If your Mom is anything like Buffy 1-7 dvd box set Viracola, she needs a break and some appreciation. There are plenty of ways to pamper her, within every budget. For the ultimate massage or facial, the 'V Spa' at the Anatole has you covered. Sarah Long, Spa manager at the V Spa says, "We have three different packages for mothers, one just a full day spa day for mom, one's just for mother's to be with the pregnancy massage, and one is a mother daughter retreat ." Buffy 1-7 dvd box set chose the Vino Therapy massage which costs $125 for 50 minutes or $200 for 80 and uses champagne grapeseed oil. And the organic signature facial, which starts at $130. Buffy says, "It's very relaxing, it's nice to be able to come and just sit and not think or worry, not do anything except just be pampered."

If you'd rather have an experience you can both share, check out the Fort Worth Opera Festival, that's going on through this weekend at Bass Hall. Prices are as low as $20 and go up to $129. Performances included Dead Man Walking, and Carmen, and the intimate hall captures all the magesty of the legendary operas. It's truly worth checking out.

And if you're the 'make it yourself' type, consider whipping up a home made meal for Mom, using fresh local ingredients. Julia Garton went to the one at Mockingbird station and says, " I got lemons from her and golden beets and some tangelos." Farmer's Markets offer fresh, inexpensive varieties of veggies, flowers and home baked goods. Paul Wackym, The Baker Man, says, "I got a mocha chocolate chip with espresso, oatmeal walnut raisin, lemon butter, peanut crunch." One of the benefits of coming to a Farmer's market is you get to interact with the purveyor and learn where your food comes from. Take honey for example, I just heard from the Bee Man that it takes 12 bees their entire lifespan, just to make one teaspoon of honey. Sharing the story with Mom will show her you took the extra time to plan a lovely meal. And you may find a little something extra that's a unique alternative to expensive perfume. Brandon Pollard, The Bee Man, from the Texas Honey Bee says, " We make the lotion bars from the bees wax from our bee hives."

Whatever you plan, do it with style and hurry up!
