Enjoy the list!
Have you jumped in on the Instant Pot craze yet? I am slowly getting there, my friends and they are truly amazing appliances. They have so many features and can save you so much time in the kitchen. My favorite thing to make (by far!) are mashed potatoes. Seriously, so easy and they turn out so well. My friend Mel at Mel’s Kitchen Cafe has some great Instant Pot recipe, see them by clicking HERE.
Assorted Design Certified International International Large Bowl Set. (For cereal, pasta, soup, etc.)
I bought a set of these fun bowls at Costco this past winter (not sure if they are still in stock there, but you can find them on Amazon at the link above). Oh, my goodness, we have loved them. They are light weight, colorful, hold the perfect amount of soup, cereal, etc. My kids love them because they don’t get overly hot in the microwave. They would make a great mothers day gift. Everyone can use more bowl, right?
This immersion blender is handy for so many things. I use mine to blend up salad dressings, stewed tomatoes, soup, smoothies, etc. It’s so much easier to wash than an entire blender. Love it!
Are these stoneware pans not the cutest? I love all of the Pioneer Woman Dishes, and especially these!
This better bowl is another favorite. So adorable and perfect for making pancakes, biscuits, muffins, etc. Also, the cute factor is definitely high.
Handbag Purse Organizer, with 13 pockets
To say I love this purse organizer would be a grand understatement. It is light weight, has a ton of pockets and fits nicely inside a medium sized purse (you can buy it in several different sizes). I load it full of all kinds of things Mom’s need handy such as… Excedrin for Migraine ;), gum, band-aids, headphones, lipstick, lotion, pens, hand sanitizer, dental floss, etc. I love it because it keeps everything organized so the inside of my purse doesn’t look like a war zone. Also, when I want to change purses I just switch it from one purse to the other. Precious cargo transferred in just a second or two. Love it.
Juicy Bath Co. Lotion and Body Souffle and Body Lotion
A dear friend gave me this lotion/body souffle set for my birthday last year and man, do I love it. The scent is super fresh and fabulous.
I love a good Wooden Salad Bowl. This one is sturdy and deep, making it perfect to take a long to a party. And it looks so pretty…
Soap Dispensing Scrubber Brush
While this scrub brush might seem Overly Practical in the gift giving department it is never the less Ah-mazing and makes dish doing so much better. It holds dish soap right in the handle. With a press of a button the soup leaks out into the brush (or sponge) and onto whatever dish you are cleaning. It’s perfect to use when there are just a few dishes to wash and you don’t want to run a whole sink of soapy water. Love it!
Bronze Family Tree Frame with 6 Hanging Picture Frames
Isn’t this frame adorable! I love the idea of the photos hanging on a “family tree”. I recently attended a wedding reception where the couple had gathered wedding pictures from their parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, and even great-great-grandparents. They framed each one individually and hung them in a tree that was growing in the yard where the reception was being held. It was amazing! It would be fun to use this little tree in the same way, perhaps hanging wedding photos of your mother’s posterity. It would also be great stocked with pictures of grandkids, children, siblings, etc. Load this baby up with whatever your Mom would love. (Or buy it for yourself and put your favorite family pictures in it).
Several years ago I made a fun Family Birthday sign for my Mom so she could keep track of all of her children and grandchildren’s birthdays, all in one spot. She loves it. This sign I found on Amazon would work in much the same way. Great for Mom’s and Grandma’s with an abundance of posterity to keep track of.
I have three Mom’s I love and respect — my daughter and two daughter’s in law. They are all super Moms They are fun, giving and loving to my grandchildren. I admire each of them for the fantastic jobs they are doing.
This will be my first Mother’s Day without my mom. She was so kind and loving to all. I never met a person who didn’t love her.
My mother always tried to cook food that I enjoyed, even after I married and moved away, she would call and ask what I would like to eat when I would come to visit. I miss sharing recipes with her.
My mom will drop everything to help anyone in need. She’s selfless and a great grandmother to my kids!
My mom is fabulous. She has completely dedicated her life to helping others. She is constantly flying to visit her children and help out with various things, she created a community theater in my home town that has flourished for over 25 years now, and she currently is working on a major project to bring a new library and community events center to the city as well. She has taught me to dream big and leave the world better than I found it. Love her dearly!
My mom is a nurse and has helped countless others over her lifetime. My mother-in-law always helps out if we need her. And Happy Mother’s Day to you, too!
I think I am one of the last people on earth without an Instant Pot and I would LOVE to win one! Mothers Day is such a special day for me, because for many, many years I didn’t think I would ever be able to celebrate it. Today, as I look into the angelic faces of my 3 miracle boys, I know I am blessed beyond measure! (And as they grow, I will need an Instant Pot to keep up with their appetites!!)
My mom is 93 and you would never guess it and I feel very blessed to still have her! Everyone I introduce her to never believes her age. She loves going to church, church activities, and spending time with family and friends. One day when I was a little girl and felt sad about not having any friends she said to me “ I’ll be your friend!..Lets be best friends!” And now that I am 60 yrs. old and have grown children of my own that statement is still very true today. We are still very close and “best friends.”
Hi Jamie love your recipes .
I battled breast Cancer in 2005 and gave away all my cook books as i was having treatments had no interest in cooking again ,which was my passion . So now i am always printing your recipes and am back cooking again . Thank You
This will sound funny posting this on a food blog – but my mom hates to cook. I did not inherit my love of cooking from her, but she always made sure we had a good meal at the end of the day. And she taught me to eat healthy – plenty of fruits and vegetables. We had a large garden and always centered our meals around its bounty. That taught me so much! Thanks, Jamie and happy mother’s day!
