Uhhh huh.....

You can trust me. It's interesting comment on today but nothing new. Kind of like when you could send $5.00 + S&H to get the "Secret to Lager, Firmer Breasts" and get a pamphlet showing how to press your palms together. Lady has a nice shtick. Rated PG

Lager Breast? Now that sounds like something you guys could really go for!

[GoldMember]

I think most people these days are into IPA breasts.

Paging KQ Claus.....Mother's Day gift ideas please.

Ugh.. Mother's Day. That day when Mom/wife says "oh don't worry about me.... your love is enough" but all the commercials on TV tell you if you don't go over the top to show your love and appreciation you're a toad stool.

My Mom lives in a retirement community so my default has become buying and planting flowers in the containers on her deck and a nice dinner out with chocolates from our wonderful chocolate store Brights (voted #1 chocolate store in Washington!).

I'm not a Mom but if I had to choose a gift for myself I think the best gift would be time spent with my family that did not involve me doing any cooking, cleaning or planning. In other words - a day off from all those everyday things a Mom and wife does everyday and a little show of appreciation, recognition and love for the same.

If you have young children it also seems like Mom would love some sort of hand-made craft that says "Love you Mom" - something simple from the heart. Finger paints, macaroni art etc. I think there are places now you can take your kid to that provide the means to do some cool crafty stuff.

If you're an old married couple with grown kids maybe she'd like to feel young and carefree again which brings us back to a night on the town or a day/weekend at the beach with a picnic, an easy hike in the woods, a nice scenic drive somewhere with stops along the way for wine tasting, antiquing etc. etc. Remember - this is about her so the more you do what she wants regardless of what you want is a major gift.

Mother's day to me has always seemed to be more about showing love through appreciation rather than gift giving (i.e. Christmas).

That all said if a gift is to be given I would go with something that is for her and her only like jewelry if she likes it, perfume, accessories etc. Something feminine.

Also - I think having flowers delivered is always nice or maybe a tree or shrub that can commemorate the day for years to come.

Got it.

Flowers being ordered, some craft from the kiddo saying "I Love You" and I'll take her out to dinner. And to kick I'll plant her an herb garden and give her the best 6 minutes of her evening.

[Huck_Schmuck]

I just ordered a massage table for my wife's mother's day present.

It's Mothers Day give her 15 or even 20 minutes....

[AK47bp]

Last time I did that she became a mother.........full circle I guess.

[riser4]

Why are we pestering KQ for Mothers' Day? This is the KQ Claus thread. Santa only comes once a year. ...And even then, it's down a chimney...

[muted]

Her best 15 minutes of the night was eating the dinner, he shouldn't compete.

So my wife sent me a link to a jacket she wanted.When it got delivered I put the package on the hall table. When she saw the package whe was upset because I "ruined the surprise".

Should I :

(A) Return the jacket and order the same thing again

(B) Return the jacket and get her the new broom we need

(C) Tell her she is not my mother, return the jacket and use the credit to get something for me.

If it helps, I got her a shovel last year and she hurt her back.

B. With a note attached "Feel Free to Ride"

Typical male response. That's what I thought too. Paging KQ

[wyeaster]

i would say you're too old to make that mistake. : )

[wooley12]

If your're married long enoug, sometimes you can make a mistake asking if they want more coffee. IME

[wyeaster]

i mean leaving it on the table and ruining the surprise

[wooley12]

She sent me the LL Bean link with the exact jacket and told me the color and size. What's the surprise? OTOH, It hasn't been mentioned since it arrived two weeks ago so perhaps she forgot all about it by now. At our age it's possible.
