I think flowers are always nice. If you have a mother who likes flowers.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
So, Sunday is Mother's Day, and if I'm going to send something to my mother it sort of needs to be ASAP. I am plumb out of ideas right now, though. Help?
Is she the kind of person who would like flowers? I've defaulted to cut roses the past few years, and my mom was just thrilled with them. Though this year I got her house slippers with gnomes on them.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Flower of the month? My mom got that from my uncle for X-mas and she loved it.
Yay Jesse!
My cat is yowling. I think it is because it is sort of stormy, plus she is a pretty vocal cat. I am calling her the "baby yowler monkey".

Huh, the author of that is at my institution, and people I know know her.

I think my mother would go straight to "You're calling me an old bat?" if I adopted a bat.
The thing about flowers is, her husband will probably do flowers; he's very reliable that way. And my sister is taking her out to brunch.

That reminds me that I have a Groupon for roses -- I should get those for my mother and grandmother. I wonder if they'd give me the deal, but split them into two bouquets with other stuff.

flea, would your mom like a gift certificate to a spa for a massage or mani-pedi or the like?

I sent my mom tulips, and Dan's mom daisies. I am also going to my mom's house Friday to help her organize her bedroom for Mother's Day.
She has some lovely furniture, but her bedroom is the land of shoes and book piles (heh, I know where my sis and I got THAT!) so I offered to organize it.
