what should I get my mom for mother's day ?
I don't know what to get my mom for mother's day I don't have any money to buy her anything this year and I don't know how to cook so it's not like I can cook supper for her and my mom is allergic to almost everything that is scented so I don't want to go that route either. Does anybody have any ideas? oh and I did the coupon book for her last year you know homemade coupon books .

Darn, I was going to suggest a coupon book.
Well, here's something different, a spa day for mom. Whether you're female or male it can be done. There are many male beauticians and I know quite a few husbands who paint their wives toenails.
If you want to keep the details secret and surprise mom, enlist the help of friends moms. When you tell them why, they will be more than happy to lend you stuff to use and give instructions.
It will work best if mom can be lying down on a bed head at the foot of it where you can easily access her. Something higher like a massage table or a sturdy rectangle dining table would work. You may want to enlist help from dad. Pad it with thick blankets to make it comfortable to lie on face up. Use a lawn trash bad for plastic protectiion against any dipping messes and have towels over the plastic.
Focus on moms head and hands. Using your fingertips massage moms scalp and work over to using thumbs to move outward from middle of forehead out. Do each step for a while at least a full minute. Rotate thumbs or finger at each temple in circles. Get a clean washcloth dip it in hot water and place on her face, as it cools repeat a couple of times. Read on line for all sorts of inspiration. There is such a thing as good hair conditioning treatments using things from the kitchen. Two raw eggs at room temp, beaten with a tablespoon oil added can be massaged into the hair and left to sit for 20-30 minutes before being rinsed out in shower. The eggs give much needed protein to the hair and the oil gives it shine. You will want to apply a mask to her face as part of spa treatment. Check online for " homemade facial masks ". And if you have cucumber at home, one slice of cucumber laying on each closed eye has benefits too..can't remember what. If a friends mom has ideas for a mask to massage into her face and will just give you some, all the more easy. While moms hair is sitting with conditioner and face with a mask on, nows the time to work on the hands. I will leave that to you to research online or get help from friends.
This is enough to get you started. I'll bet this would be a gift she'll never forget for the rest of her life.

Write her a poem or a letter telling her what she means to you. It's the thought that counts right. You could also give her a day off from doing chores and do them all yourself. That mean more to her than a box of chocolates :)
