New Twists On Classic Mother's Day Gifts

Last Mother’s Day did you find yourself buying the same old box of chocolate candies? Or ordering the same old dozen roses? Looking for a new and fun way to celebrate and honor the mother in your life?  Here are four ideas for classic Mother’s Day gifts but with a new twist. 

 

The Black Eyed Susan Florist located in Gambrills shopping center at Rt. 424 and Rt. 450 is offering special gifts baskets this year. “We have many different options for mothers this year; one of the most unusual is gourmet foods and tees delivered in a re-useable thermal lunch bag. It not only tastes wonderful but mom will be able to use the bag in the future,” says long-time employee Tracey Olsen. She also explains that customers can call or stop into their store and design a basket themselves, choosing from a large assortment of fine organic foods, teas, chocolates. However, if your heart is set on flowers, consider sending mom a tropical plant. “In the past few years many of our customers are choosing plants. Our store has a wonderful selection of tropical plants but orders need to be placed a few days in advance,” says Olsen.

1. What's the difference between Valentine's Day and any other day? 

RW: We sell four times the normal amount of fruit. We go from two drivers to eight to 10. Everything's quadrupled. It's tough because you have to deliver to businesses by a set time that day. The fruit is more expensive for us to buy, but unfortunately we can't raise our prices.

2. What's most popular for Valentine's Day?

RW: The chocolate-covered strawberries are very romantic [$25 for a dozen]. Balloons add a festive touch to it. They come in a Valentine's Day red container; we have teddy bears. A balloon, a bear, a box of chocolate-covered strawberries and you have a nice little package [$38.50, plus $12 delivery, or pick it up yourself and avoid the delivery charge]. There's also the 12-piece assortment of mixed fruit (bananas, strawberries, green apples) dipped in white and dark chocolate.
