Celebrate Mom from a Distance
This Mother’s Day, things are going to be a little different. With social distancing measures in place, we can’t take our moms out for a special day or even visit them in person. But that doesn’t mean we can’t show them how much we care.
Send a Gift to Brighten Her Day
Since many merchants are experiencing shipping delays, we need to think outside the box (or gift basket) to find unique and thoughtful presents that will arrive on time. Here are some ideas that won’t break the bank:
Sweet Treats
- A dozen assorted cookies from Milk Bar, individually wrapped and bursting with flavor ($36)
- Gourmet drizzled strawberries, a delicious and indulgent treat ($44.99)

Personalized Touches

The Thought Counts
