Weekly Chronicles: Mother’s Day Edition

KayLynn · May 12, 2013 · 2 Comments

This image just about reflects how it is with Moms and daughters.  Last Mother’s Day was only a few weeks after my mom had passed and it seemed not to be too hard a day.  In retrospect I was still in shock.

This year has been incredibly emotional as I hear and see all the ads for Mother’s Day gifts.  If you are lucky enough to still have your mom, don’t take her for granted and say all the things you want said.  You don’t always have as much time as you think.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms!

Around the Web

Here are some of my favorite articles from this week.  Enjoy!

Yesterday was a Virtual Vegan Potluck where 168 blogs participated.  Follow the chain for great recipes for courses from appetizers to dessert!

Beating Broke showed us what a week of food looks like for families around the world.  I feel so lucky after seeing the menu for families in Africa!

Is the internet tax upon us is the question asked by Frugal Rules.  It’s already here if you live in California.

Budgeting in the Fun Stuff shares how to get freebies by being a product tester.

Enjoy this recipe for spring minestrone soup from Laa Loosh.
