Best Bets for Mother's Day

May 11 – One day of the year that isn’t about you… It’s about mom. For all they do throughout the year, we owe it to them to spoil them for at least these 24 hours. Take the guesswork out of your Mother’s Day shopping and planning with toronto.com's editors picks.

Mother's Day Brunch: Eggs Benny, French toast and cup after cup of strong, hot java. Treat mom to a sumptuous brunch this Mother’s Day at one of the city’s best restaurants. We’ve picked places she’s sure to love (just as much as you).

Mother's Day Events: She carried you around in her belly for nine months, loved you during your terrible twos, got you through your first day of school, and put up with you during your melodramatic teens. The least you can do is take her some place nice for Mother’s Day. Here are a few suggestions.

Spas: Mother’s Day is a great opportunity to place mom on a pedestal and treat her like a queen. Bond and spend time together…What better way than sharing a day at the spa? Or if mom relaxes more when you’re not around, then ship her off to the spa by herself!

Sweet Treats: Still trying to figure out what to get your mom this Mother’s Day? If she’s like most women, she’ll go for chocolate or sweets like bees to honey. But chose wisely... Make sure you pick something truly delicious and decadent.

Flowers: Despite the fact that year after year, they're the top-selling Mother's Day gift, they'll never go out of style -- Whether it's a beautiful bouquet or a potted plant, flowers have always been a way to show we care. If you're going with flowers this year, check out these shops for some of the best traditional and unique Mother's Day bouquets.
