You can’t go wrong with getting your mom some chocolate on her special day. Miss Maude’s chocolate bars are incredibly yummy and come infused with some amazing ingredients. My personal favorite is the “Whiskey Business” bar which has several ingredients added, including both rye and scotch whisky, candied pecans, and bourbon caramel. You can get it in dark Italian chocolate or milk chocolate, and both options contain organic chocolate.

There are many different flavor profiles to choose from, such as “Secret Single Behavior” (featuring red wine and ice cream notes) and “The Theater Bar” (which has cola and popcorn flavors). Choose one flavor or get a variety with the gift box.

Simply put it away from you to re-cool (which only takes thirty minutes). It is portable, so mom can take it with her when she travels.

The eye mask is an easy way to deal with migraines, dark circles and puffiness. It cools to 58 degrees and stays that way for about forty minutes. Additionally, it is latex-free and can be used daily. Both products are available in blush and gray mist.
