I look forward to Mothers Day because it’s the day we plant all my flower pots with annuals. For me, it’s the start of summer here in New York. I love watching these flowers grow and flourish all summer long and that makes me feel happy. Sometimes my guys will also surprise me with a new cool kitchen appliance or gadget. It could be something I’ve been hinting around for, but sometimes it is a complete surprise. You really can’t go wrong giving kitchen tools to a Real Foodie Mama!
