Today, we released our annual list of “Top 10 Mother’s Day Gifts.”

Each year – knowing what’s been most popular in preceding years – and having seen the current year’s new offerings, we put our heads together and come up with those ideas that are not only staff favorites, but that seem to reflect the tastes and times we live in.
We hope you enjoy this year’s list as much as we enjoyed putting it together!

Well as we noted in another post, we don’t typically mention books, movies, etc. This is the book that made us temporarily suspend that rule.
It’s called:
What Should I Do with the Rest of My Life?: True Stories of Finding Success, Passion, and New Meaning in the Second Half of Life, by a good friend of ours, Bruce Frankel.
The hardcover came out last year and the paperback was just released. And here’s the best news:
Bruce has kindly provided us with three *signed* copies of the hardcover version of his book, to be given away through our site!
Bruce’s book is comprised of truly inspiring stories of people to who at some point in the middle of life (or later than the middle), were moved to reinvent their lives for the better.

We don’t typically mention books, movies, etc. as we’re not a review site, but this year we’ve come across two books that we feel are worth noting for our audience.
The first is called: 31 Days to a Younger You: No Surgery, No Diets, No Kidding by our friend Arlene Pellicane. Arlene is a writer, bloger, speaker, mom, and all around good egg.
Arlene’s book is filled with engaging, insightful and charming stories about her everyday life, and makes you feel as though you’re having a conversation with someone you know and trust.
The books includes lots of helpful tips on fitness, nutrition, health, beauty, organization and more, and encourages the reader to think about how practical tips can be applied to everyday life in order to help you look better, feel better and enjoy life more.
