Mother s Day is on Sunday, May 9, 2021, and while I am not a mom, most of my friends are. It s been a rough year for so many people financially, so I figured I d put together a list of free or low-cost things you can do for your mom or the moms in your life. While I m sure your mom might love a designer bag or stack of cash in her hand, she would also appreciate some of your time.or you freeing up some of her time.
1.
Cook her a homemade breakfast. For most of us, when we think of the good ol days with our moms, we think about all the delicious food she cooked for us. It would be great if you and the kids (or grandkids) made her a nice breakfast. And don t forget to clean up too! If cooking a whole breakfast seems like more than you can handle, try baking her some cookies or a cake or making a simple dish.

Looking for a gift for mom this year? There’s a way for you to help her indulge without feeling guilty about it.
Tim Horton’s has a special box that you can get for moms starting on Wednesday that is supposed to hide the donuts you get her by making the box look like a book instead.
They call them Donut Disguise Boxes and they re designed to look like classic novels. The titles on the boxes are even close to the originals. You can find
Glazed Expectations and
I want to be clear here.there s no reason to feel guilty for eating donuts…especially on Mother s Day. But what is the biggest thing she used to yell at you for with your brothers and sisters? Yup.sharing. This way she won’t have to feel guilty for not sharing. Not that she should have to anyway! It’s Mother s Day!
