Of all God’s creation, only our mothers love us unconditionally; placing our needs above their own. They nurture us, comfort us and protects us from harm.
Though we believe a single day is not enough to celebrate the greatness of this beautiful human being, we do our best on Mother’s Day. We want to make her feel like the most special person in the world. What better day to tell her how much you value her love?
Here are our recommendations for what to do on this special day:
You can never go wrong with cakes
Plan ahead and order a customized cake or cupcakes from her favorite place. If you can’t make up your mind, choose from among the following places, that also have some great deals on Mother’s Day:
- Pie in the Sky
- Pane & Amore
- Vintage Bakery

Put a smile on her face with a great breakfast
Wake up early (or at least before your mother does) and prepare a surprise breakfast for her. We have a number easy-to-follow breakfast recipes for you to choose from. Trust us, she will really enjoy not having to cook breakfast for once! While you’re at it, grab a piece of colored paper and a marker and write a special message for her – it’s the little things that matter, and she will adore you for it.
Spend quality time with her
Since it’s already Sunday, so most of you will be free. But, in case you aren’t we really suggest you take some time out for mom. We guarantee she’ll love it, and it will make her feel super special. There are a number of things you can do together, from shopping to watching a movie together. We suggest:
1. Visit stores with Mother’s Day discounts

4. Take her to the movies
Moms usually don’t go out to see a movie, but we all know how much they love watching them! (This can easily be deduced by the enthusiasm they exhibit at daily soaps on TV). Sure, they’ll cry at both the sad AND happy scenes, but watching them so emotional about fictional characters is an experience you don’t want to miss.
5. Join Mother’s Day celebrations at Port Grand
You can get free pass into Port Grand on this day. Take a speed boat ride with her, have a dinner buffet, get her a fresh bouquet of flowers, see a live sketch of your mother and take a carriage ride just for the two of you! (OK, we’re personally sold on this one)

End the day with a scrumptious meal
After a busy day of fun activities, and obviously some intense heart to heart with mom, it’s time you treat her to a fulfilling meal, the way she has for you all her life. Here are a few restaurants with special offers on Mother’s Day:
Ginsoy Extreme Chinese – These guys have something amazing planned for moms. Take your mother for a meal on May 8 to avail the surprise. We can’t wait to see what they have in store!
