The joys, trials and tribulations of motherhood... who'd be crazy enough to take that on? Well done Mums; you deserve all of the special attention you will get on Sunday and much more besides!
This weekend, the Vegfest at Hove Town Hall and the Chocolate Festival at Brighton Dome, are both great days out to enjoy a variety of food treats. We additionally have suggestions of live music, shows & comedy in our regular Picks of the Week article linked to below.
Find some ideas for Mother's Day gifts with special offers including a Studio Photoshoot with the creative ladies at Phase Photography, Massage Bliss vouchers from award winning Back 2 Balance of Hove and getting your memories showcased on canvas by Lollipop Print.
There are also delightful natural body and beauty products including the Faith in Nature range and soaps hand made in Brighton from Ecostream who are offering a 10% discount for this weekend only.
If you have not yet chosen a Mother's Day card that could be a good thing... We have an article about the kinds you could go for from 'traditional', 'cute and colourful' to 'funny'. I hear humour is much in vogue this year, however if you want to hedge your bets you can get 4 cards for the price of 3 in a very generous offer from Creased Cards of Meeting House Lane - exclusive for 'thebestof' readers of course.
There are lots more offers, events and articles to explore on our website, Facebook and Twitter pages, brought to you by thebestof Brighton and Hove.
