It’s never too much for mom
Written byIsn’t your mom the best? She worked hard to make you into the wonderful, thoughtful human being you are. That’s why it’s important that you show her what a good job she did with a lovely little something—or a whole lotta something—from UberEATS on Mother’s Day.
Now, in case you aren’t quite as clever and thoughtful as your mom thinks you are, here are a few quick tips for how to make her big day extra delicious.
Kisses, not dishes
This is a no-brainer: Give her a night off from thinking up, cooking up and cleaning up dinner. Let her choose her favorite pasta dish, an expertly prepared steak or even a burger with all the fixings. It’ll arrive Uber fast, so get her settled and relaxed—and you answer the door when her delivery arrives. Give her a smooch for all the home-cooked meals she made for you, even the meatloaf you claimed to hate.
“Pack” her lunch
She spent years cutting the crusts off your PB&J and writing notes on your napkins. This is the perfect occasion to return the favor—only ditch the white bread and bag of corn chips. Think sushi, a bento box, a yummy club sandwich or a big, fancy salad, and have her favorite lunch delivered to her at home or at work.
Sweets for the sweetest
She always told you that you were beautiful, even when you cut your own bangs. She never pointed out that you were less than great at volleyball. She just cheered you on. And she probably even wore that macaroni necklace you made her. Send your honey of a mama a box of swirly cupcakes or dreamy chocolates. She’s definitely earned a little sweet stuff.
The Mother of all breakfasts
Perhaps the best gift you can give your mother is a restful, indulgent breakfast feast in bed. She doesn’t have to wear a nice dress or shoes. She can have whatever she likes—Eggs Benedict, a pain au chocolate, avocado toast—just what mom deserves.
Now that you have some good ideas, all you have to do is remember when Mother’s Day is. (Sunday May 14, 2017.) You can manage that, right? Remember this is MOM we’re talking about. She deserves it all, and then some.
