Mother’s Day ‘Roses’

How about a bouquet of “roses” for your mom this Mother’s Day? These roses won’t wilt in their vase after a week, though — Pacifica’s Rose Soy Candles make a perfect gift because they’ll last well beyond your May 10th celebration of mom.

Health Notes with Dr. Liz

Four Foods for Mom

She’s been there for you, every day 24/7. This Mother’s Day, express your appreciation for mom (or any mom for that matter!) with health-boosting foods.

• Fruit Delight: Fill a wicker basket (probably one stashed in the closet not being used) with a selection of fruit such as berries, mango, kiwi, grapes and other mom favorites. Since she needs at least three pieces of fruit daily for good health, this will help her get needed potassium, fiber and vitamins.
• Herb Bouquet: Combine a bunch of basil, cilantro and chives in a bouquet. Wrap in a damp paper towel for fresh keeping in the fridge. Herbs have vitamins A and K along with many phytonutrients that help protect heart health.
• Tea Delight: Put together a few types of mom’s favorite teas (green, chamomile, cinnamon varieties) with a pretty tea cup and small jar of honey. Tea is loaded with catechins, which are powerful antioxidants that help protect against cancer and other age-related diseases.
• Bag of Bulk: Make a selection from the bulk food section – nuts of all kind, whole grains, dried fruit and trail mix. These foods provide a wealth of nutrients and antioxidants for good health. Stash all in a reusable grocery bag tied with a bow. Mom will love it!
