Moms Deserve Chocolate Love Note

Anyone else scrambling for a cute, useful, fun, Mother's Day gift for their Mom or mothering figures in their lives?  I think this year may have caught me most off guard.  I have been dropping hints to my husband of what I want for Mother's Day but just realized this week that we have Moms too and needed to get something for them!! Luckily there is one thing that is ALWAYS the answer-CHOCOLATE!


A trip to Trader Joe's left us with a lot of fun new chocolate that we can give to our sisters, aunts, grandmas, friends and of course Moms!


I wish I could taste test all of these chocolates but I guess all of the people I am giving them too will just have to report back!  Luckily you can find lots of chocolate items at your local grocery store with pick up and delivery options at this time.  Also Target Pick Up is a dreamy thing!  Use it!


You could always pair this tag with a box of chocolates from a specialty chocolate place.  I miss you Rebecca's chocolates and See's!!  I hear See's is taking pick up orders though and just in time for Mother's Day!! I might want to send this post to Dallin ;)


Side note have you ever had these Toffee Chips from Trader Joe's?  They are incredible.  I had planned to give them to my sister and ate the whole box almost completely by myself!!  


Love these mini milk chocolate bars, perfect for giving to friends and sisters!


These Mini Chocolate Mousse Flowers are so delicious and the perfect chocolatey/not chocolate thing for people that don't prefer chocolates.  I don't know many of those people. haha


You can never go wrong with Dove Chocolates or their favorite chocolate candy bar!


I know, I know these aren't chocolates but they make a perfect filler for gifts!  Use a few of these Pink and White cookies to fill a cute little container or box and then use just a few chocolates.  This is a great way to stay on budget and make your supplies stretch!


Mother's Day can be a hard day for many.  It's even a bitter sweet day for me.  You never know what someone is going through or what has happened in their lives.  I'm lucky to have an incredible Mom, but I know not everyone does.  I celebrate my cute Mom on Mother's Day and that I get to be Olivia's Mommy.  I also celebrate the many other motherly figures in mine and Olivia's lives.  Women are so loving, kind, sweet and caring.  I like to acknowledge that!  If you have a sweet lady on your mind this weekend.  Maybe give her some chocolate too-no matter if she has kids or not! :)  That's why I have so many different tag options I have Mom of course but also sister, aunt, grandma and friend!  So it works for all of them.


I found these adorable ramekins at Smith's in their 5 and under bin.  I think it's new!  It was love at first sight!  It was 2 ramekins for $3.


I have a few other Mother's Day ideas here on the blog.  Find them all HERE!  I looked through my archives and am going to do a very special gift with one of them this year.  Can you guess it? 


I've learned to not stress holidays.  Even though I want to make them fun and I'd love to be better about planning ahead.  Holidays are just a time to recognize and acknowledge the people you love and admire.  It isn't something that is supposed to be stressful.  So give them some chocolate, put a cute tag on it and call it good!

I always suggest to download the file so you get the exact layout as seen above.
