5 Best Mother's Day Gifts From Afar
Not all of us may be able to visit Mom for Mother's Day this year, but we can still prove that she'll be in our thoughts. From buying New York baked goods from Goldbelly to creating a unique letter for her to enjoy, here are several ideas to entertain and treat her! NO. 1: WRITE A LETTER INCLUDING PICTURES, LOCAL STICKERS, EVEN PRESSED FLOWERS. Letters are an old-fashioned way of expressing your love and appreciation for someone, but in our modern age, that’ll make it so much more touching for your mother to receive. Lately, it’s been trendy for local coffeehouses and mom-and-pop shops to sell branded stickers — whether she’s been there or not, share a few with her, along with a thoughtful letter about the times in the day you think about her during your adult life. NO. 2: GIVE A GIFT THAT’LL MAKE IT MORE COMFORTABLE AT HOME. Even as the vaccine is being distributed, spending more time at home is the new norm. Whether it’s a soft set of pajamas, a plush robe, silk pillowcases, or something else luxurious that your mom won’t buy for herself, try making her life a little easier with a cozy gift idea! NO. 3: SUPPORT HER AMBITIONS WITH A HOBBY-RELATED GIFT! Do you love a certain recipe that she makes, like key lime pie? Try getting her an improved juicer or another kitchen appliance to make her life easier! NO. 4: SEND A HOMEMADE BAKED GIFT. One of the best gifts that you can give is something you and your family created yourselves. A tin of delicious cookies is a great way of doing that. Gather your kids together, mix the dough, and bake cookies, then send them over with a sweet note. She’ll adore that she gave you and your family a reason to spend time together and that you were thinking of her. NO. 5: SEND A FAVORITE TREAT FROM AN AWARD-WINNING U.S. BAKERY. These days, you can send baked goods from anywhere in the U.S., and Goldbelly makes it especially easy. Goldbelly specializes in shipping favorite food items from restaurants, bakeries, and other food purveyors. The e-commerce business has offerings from more than 350 establishments across the country.
Stories about celebrities can be enjoyable or awkward, but no matter what happens, they usually create great material for BuzzFeed or Reddit users. This also includes celebrity stories involving the law, which bring on a lot of head-scratching and legal action — like these three strange cases. SIMON COWELL PAYS FOR A CHEF’S DISAPPEARING SHOES. Known for his unrelenting critiques and setting the stage for some of the world’s biggest names in show business, Simon Cowell has amassed enough wealth to afford a private chef. When one such chef came by his house for a job interview, she was asked to remove her shoes, but according to court documents, she never received her shoes back. The chef claims to have tried multiple times to retrieve the shoes — which were outfitted with $500 orthopedic insoles — but never succeeded. She sued Cowell for the shoes and gas money, and the “America’s Got Talent” star shelled out. INTERNET CONSPIRACY THEORY RESULTS IN A COURT CASE AGAINST BEYONCÉ. The internet is a wild place, and conspiracy theories are often born on its digital channels. One such theory was that Beyoncé and her husband, Jay-Z, hired a surrogate to give birth to their daughter, Blue Ivy, in 2012. Internet trolls who saw her pregnant belly roll as she sat down for an interview fanned the flames of this theory, and soon, a lawsuit emerged. A woman claimed she was the true biological mother of Blue Ivy, and she asked for compensation and DNA testing to prove it. Previously, the same woman claimed to be the birth mother of North West, the daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, but the court threw out the case. MILA KUNIS RUFFLES SOME FEATHERS. Actress Mila Kunis was sued for $5,000 by her childhood friend, Kristina Karo, in 2015 because Kunis allegedly stole a chicken from Karo when they were still children in Ukraine. Karo, an aspiring singer, claimed the theft resulted in extreme emotional distress and prevented her from pursuing the American dream. According to Kunis, the theft occurred when she was 7 years old and Karo was just 1 month old. Kunis and her husband, actor Ashton Kutcher, speculated that the case was all a publicity stunt to promote Karo’s upcoming music video, and the case was eventually dropped.
