Ryan Reynolds’ Twitter feed never disappoints.
Whether he’s sharing brutal rejection letters sent to his buddy Deadpool or gleefully trolling Blake Lively on her birthday, he always does it in style.
Mother’s Day is no exception.
On Sunday, while many celebrities were sharing fairly straightforward messages, Reynolds went with something a little left of field.
Yeah, you’ve made some unsettling romantic decisions. But that never stopped you from being an amazing mom#HappyMothersDay pic.twitter.com/8H6AIg449P

If your mom doesn’t live close by, or if you totally spaced on getting her a Mother’s Day gift this year, then flowers or chocolates are a great, last-minute gift idea that are sure to brighten her day. (And at the very least, it shows that you were thinking of her.)

AHEM: Mother’s Day is coming up quick (it’s on May 13), and if you clicked on this post, that means you still haven’t gotten a gift for your mom. (Insert roast here.)
Don’t worry, we have a great idea for a unique, last-minute gift.
Give mom or grandma the gift of, well, family, with a 23andMe DNA test kit. They’re $30 off as part of 23andMe’s Mother’s Day sale, and are available on Amazon Prime with free two-day shipping. (Just make sure you order before Thursday, May 10 at midnight if you want it by Sunday.)
23andMe tests from over 150 different regions and can give mom a detailed breakdown of the badass moms (and dads) that came before her — all she has to do is fill the provided tube with her spit, send it back, and she’ll get her results in six to eight weeks. Read more…

Amazon is offering huge deals on almost all of their devices until May 13. Getting a sale on all of these at the same time almost never happens — unless it’s Black Friday or Amazon Prime Day. (Trust us, this is what we do.)
Amazon is known to swoop in and help out the slackers right before a big gift holiday though, and Mother’s Day just happens to fall on May 13 this year. (Would you look at that?)
If you were just going to opt for a generic card, here’s an idea: Don’t. Give her the gift of thousands of books at her fingertips, Alexa voice commands, or hands-free soap opera binging instead. Read more…

Mother’s Day is just around the corner and let’s face it — the typical gift of flowers is just boring. Your mom deserves a better flower.
Given the recent leaps in cannabis legalization, there’s a good possibility your mom enjoys toking up, or at the very least, is open to the possibility. So, this Mother’s Day, consider giving your mom the gift of weed.
Whether it’s a lotion to ease some aches and pains or a nice vape to help bring your mom’s toking into this century, check out the list below for some gift inspiration this Mother’s Day. Read more…

Best Mother’s Day gifts for every kind of mom

Mother’s Day is just around the corner. (In 2018 it falls on May 13, for those of you who forgot).
Your mother is a goddess. After all, she gave birth to you. And while finding a gift worthy of her can be hard, it’s not impossible. This is mushy as hell, but you should know by now that it’s not the money that goes into the gift — it’s truly the thought that counts.
So, instead of giving her that same generic candle like always, take some time to find something that really represents your appreciation.
We’ve picked out some gifts that are as unique as she is, and they’re sure to make her smile. Read more…

Mother’s Day is one of the most rewarding holidays to shop for, but also one of the most difficult: You can’t wait to surprise her and make her feel appreciated, but finding the perfect gift that encompasses just how much you love her can be tough.
If you’re having trouble finding a gift that is worthy of your mom, we have an idea: Instead of giving just one gift on Mother’s Day, give her a gift once a month. Yup, it’s subscription box time.
Cratejoy is having a massive Mother’s Day sale, but massive doesn’t even seem like an accurate enough word. From now until May 13, over 100 boxes will be up to 50% off — just use code MOMSDAY at checkout. Read more…

With Mother’s Day fast approaching in the UK (11th March), we have rounded up some of the best reusable, fair trade and environmentally friendly products that allow you to treat your mum while looking after Mother Earth.
The environmental impact of cut flowers has been well documented. Most cut flowers we buy are grown in high energy consuming greenhouses in far away countries, producing large carbon footprints. Although the UK has recently seen a revival in UK grown flowers, why not try this environmentally friendly and practical solution? This window herb box planter has been hand made in Wiltshire using English Oak locally sourced from FSC approved woodland. Practical, stylish and sustainable. Read more…
