We chatted to a Torquay local mum, who gave us a ‘real-life’ insight to her thoughts on Mother’s Day and in the form of gift ideas and vouchers she’d like. “To be honest, I’m just going to list the things I really want on this day! Something more obvious than flowers, chocolate, lingerie, jewellery, even brunch!”
- I want sleep in. I think all mums would agree to that!
- Shower me with a couple of day spa gift vouchers so I can just have a massage or two in an hours silence alone.
- I want a pedicure whilst I scroll through my Facebook with no interruptions!
- How about a cheese platter, some wine and mud cake without the guilts!
- Some vouchers in the form of ‘tokens’ that I don’t have to clean the house for 24hrs or pick up after anyone that whole day!
- A yoga session and lunch with the family.
- A nice long hot bath, maybe with a wine in the afternoon.
- To watch a 3hr old time favourite movie on a kick back recliner with my favourite coffee from the Torquay Larder.
- Another visit to my favourite day spa again.
Mother’s Day surprises from my kids- the ones they come home with from the local market or school stalls! – We hope this little insight to what this mum and possibly other mums really want, (and gave you a little laugh along the way). Thank-you Tracey for sharing such a personal view to this special day, we sure liked it!
Contact us if you’re after spoiling mum this year with something a bit different, unique and ultimately relaxing and rewarding! We have plenty of other ideas.
