Mother love
Bette Davis famously said “If you
have never been hated by your
child, you have never been a parent.”
Luckily most of us love our mums and
get lots in return, so make this
Mother’s Day (6 March)
one to remember.
If your mum is traditional you can’t
go far wrong with flowers.
The home-loving mum will appreciate
the Paperchase photograph album to
store cherished memories, and perfume
is always a hit with the label-loving mum.

The practical trendy mother will
treasure a copy of the 21st Century Beauty
Bible packed with beauty tips, homemade
beauty recipes and hundred of product reviews.

CHOCaid
If you’re buying Easter gifts this year take a look at Chocaid’s
Gourmet Swiss organic range.
Not only is it delicious, but with each purchase you
contribute to one of a number of projects helping to counter hunger in the developing world. We love
the chocolate globe, which can be personalised
with a special greeting, and the bags of truffles – not exactly eggs
but roughly the right shape.
The Easter Bunny would approve.
CHOCaid globe £9.29, truffles £4.96 140g www.chocaid.com
