Mother’s Day is this Sunday (friendly HUSBAND reminder), and I am of the opinion that we should preemptively spoil ourselves, just in case those who should be spoiling us, fail miserably.
I may or may not be speaking from experience. (Need to go shopping asap)
So, how about a little something as a Mother’s Day giveaway (from Kellogg’s) that you can give to yourself (mostly because it won’t arrive until after Sunday – yes I’ve timed this perfectly).
What’s in the basket?
- Trish Magwood’s newest cookbook “In My Mother’s Kitchen”
- Baking Dish
- Full size box of Rice Krispies
- Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
- Marshmallows
The basket is valued at $100!
GIVEAWAY:
Mandatory Entry:
Leave me a comment below telling me, if money was no object, what your perfect Mother’s Day present would be.
Optional Additional Entry: (one time only)
Tweet the following & leave a comment below saying that you did: Win a $100 gift basket from Kellogg’s on @BOREDMommy ’s blog – http://bit.ly/jJwycY #Giveaway
RULES:
- Giveaway will end this Sunday, May 8th
- Open to Canadian Residents only
- Winner will be chosen using random.org
UPDATE: CONGRATS TO # 7 – CHANTAL!! THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO ENTERED!!!

I would love to have breakfast with the family followed by an afternoon away at the spa with my mom and grandmother.
A couple week trip to Ontario to visit my family! (With the rest of my family, of course!)
Perfect.

It would obviously start by sleeping in until my sweet self woke up. Actually, maybe I’d wake up in a lush hotel room? That might be the better start that I truly need. Then there would be a delicious brunch catered by my chef husband (this part is doable, truly a chef). Then I’d be sent out to the spa to get my toes painted pink. Followed by a chance to go shopping ALL BY MYSELF. Then, we’d all sit around the living room clinking champagne glasses with each other. Toasting what a great mama I am
tee hee

This is a lovely gift to receive.
If I had a choice I would like an ipad.
My daughter has one and I recently used and
enjoyed it.
I would just love to sleep through the night. With a nearly-three-month-old who does not sleep well, I doubt that will happen any time soon!

I’d go for some professional camera equipment.
If money was no object and miracles could come true, I would like to spend one more day with my mom as she is no longer with us (in Heaven now). But since that can’t happen, I would love to have a family vacation with all of my boys, take them to somewhere like DisneyWorld as we just cannot afford it right now.

If money were no object I would have a custom painted kitchen aid stand mixer.
i will buy her the most exotic flowers in the world
I wouldn’t mind jetting off to Vegas for the weekend…
Take my mom to France.
I would send my mother on a trip to the european city she was born and raised in!
A European cruise with my husband — but I’d have a full time nanny along on the cruise, too so I could bring the kids and not worry about them (but be able to relax, too!)
We’ve been to the movies several times in the past month and during the pre-show clips they ask some people what they want for mother’s day. One woman asks “If money were no object?” and the host says “Yeah, if I had a suticase full of money.” And the woman says “Yep that would be perfect! A suitcase full of money!”. I laugh every time I see it so I’m going to say my perfect mother’s day gift would be a suitcase full of money!

If money were no object I would want a trip for my whole family including my parents to Ireland. For like a month. That is one of my dreams.
Oh wait! You have to live in Canada to win! Oh well… at least now you know my dream.
If money was no object I would buy a house with all the fancy goodies inside and give it to my son who is just starting out with a new baby.

If money was NO OBJECT, I would allow Buckingham Palace’s staff to sort, organize and clean my humble home, while I spent the day in England, touring the Tower of
Jewels, where all the royal jewels are on display to the public. Naturally this would be a private tour! Then I would jet to Beverly Hills and check into a fancy spa and have the entire works done (because trust me I need it!), where finally I would return to my clean home and crawl into a freshly made bed, complete with a chocolate on the pillow!!!!
If money was no object my Mothers Day would consist of all the wonderful moms in my life drinking cocktails on a warm tropical beach somewhere as our children play in the sand, closely watched by daddy

If money were no object, I would love to take my boys (two little ones and my husband!), along with my mom and dad, to Australia. Everything about being there seems so so neat – though the cost is quite prohibitive.
Happy Mother’s day to all!
For the time being, I am happy to know that I can sleep in this Sunday and be brought breakfast in bed and showered with love, hugs, kisses and hand-made gifts.
If money were no object then I’d fly my mom out here to spend Mother’s day with me and my twin toddlers. We’re going to have to settle for skype.

Money not being an object…I would take my mom on a mother-daughter trip to NYC for shopping, dining, site-seeing, and of coarse Broadway shows!

My daughter and best friend is away at college getting her Master’s degree over 1,100 miles away and will be away for the 5th Mother’s Day in a row. I haven’t seen her since January 1, 1011. If I could have anything in this world it would be to see her for Mother’s Day. So, if money were no object I would get on the next plane and fly out to see her.
Spa Items giftbasket, a salon gift card and a dinner-out is perfect Mother’s Day present.

Go on a trip to Cali and spend the morning shopping on Rodeo Drive, afternoon at the spa, dinner at a chic West Hollywood restaurant, and then go to Disneyland the next morning!
I would love a full day at the spa….head to toe treatment
Honestly? A plane ticket to see my Dad. He’s battling a rare disease and there are still things I want to say to him.
