Mother's Day Picks!

Mother's Day is coming around the corner. I have so many ideas of what I want and want to give, that it's getting overwhelming. There's my all time favorite kitchen and dining gifts I've been wanting for a loooong time!

Let's see, there's the Kitchenaid Professional 600 which would help me fulfill one of my dreams to become a better baker. And then there's the Cuisinart 14-cup brushed stainless food processor that I've had my eye on for what seems like forever. Then there's this Rachael Ray Stoneware that's all pretty awesome! And Le Creuset makes some amazing stuff that I've been drooling over including this 20-piece cookware set.

Maybe I'll send the link to this post as a hint since my Birthday and Mother's day are close together. There's lots of beauty products, handbags, and jewelry that I wouldn't mind receiving. *wink* My perfume is two years old so it's starting to change it's smell, time to get a new one like Vera Wang Princess, or Marc Jacobs Daisy, or even Stella by Stella McCartney.

Handbags? Well, it's been ages since I've bought a new handbag(about a year to be exact *gasp*) So, how about this Hobo International Jude Vintage leather handbag or this Nine West Leoni satchel

We'll see if he takes the hint?

All Moms Go To Heaven-Review *CLOSED*


I found Jean's site, All Moms Go To Heaven , looking for some Mother's Day goodies not long ago and was intrigued mostly by her story. It's really sweet! I also really like the brand she has created and what it represents.

OK, so a little about the symbol and saying "All Moms Go To Heaven". After she gave birth to her first child, she told her mom that she "must be going to heaven for this". Her Mother replied with "All Moms Go To Heaven" and it really stuck with her. She also had a close friend whose daughter was injured in an accident. The friend was understandably upset and stated to her "didn't you tell me All Moms Go To Heaven?" She decided then that she would try to make a venue and logo that would honor moms every day.

Jean has created a few different logos for her products. There's a silver metallic halo over a large "M" with "All Moms Go To Heaven" printed underneath. There's also items for Grandma's and kids to wear, in fun colors. She has a number of items to choose from including T-shirts, aprons, spa gifts, tanks, and hats.
I was fortunate to receive the Dupont Teflon cotton apron. It's 100% machine washable, full size, adjustable neck strap and waist ties, and basically one size fits all. There's two front pockets so you could use this for cooking, crafts, washing babies, you name it. I love it and am using it for my cooking and dish washing since I can be quite a mess while working in the kitchen. ha ha

Jean keeps a blog that celebrates mostly all things "Mom". What a wonderful cause to have a celebration! She even has an entry form for people to nominate their Mom or an awesome Mom on her main website. If yours is selected there is a gift basket to win! Jean is the Mother of two children and is another "mompreneur" that I raise a glass to today!
