It’s almost Mother’s Day!

May 4th, 2010 by Anthea | 7 Comments | Filed in Celebrity, The Magazine, food

Hey Girl Powerettes!

It’s Mother’s Day on Sunday! Yay! We hope you’re planning to pamper the mother figure in your life – whether it be your mum, stepmum or maybe your aunty or grandma.

No need to buy uber-expensive gifts – a nice card or a crafty creation goes a long way in showing your mum how much you heart her. The May issue of GP has a mother’s day special with some great ideas, including the cutest cookie recipe! Don’t forget to check it out, it’s on sale now!

Speaking of cooking, Demi Lovato usually spends mother’s day in the kitchen with her mum Dianna. They like to chat away while they cook up yummy fajitas and salad.

My sis and I think Demi is definitely onto a good thing! We want to give our mum a break though, so we’ll be cooking up a delicious dinner for her while she relaxes. How about you Girl Powerettes? How are you planning to spend Mother’s Day?
