Mother's Day Gift Guide
Shower mom with these thoughtful gifts, then hit our Mother's Day Gifting HQ for more showering ideas. Gross.


Em-bling Her: Marion Elliott Designs
German architect/jewelry designer ME crafts one-of-a-kind, radly whimsical (but not too edgy for Mom) necklaces and bracelets. Neck pieces come in two types: chunks of semi-precious quartz, citrine, amethyst, etc, wrapped in heavy-gauge gold/silver wire, or fresh water pearls, coral, sea glass, and cat/dog charms woven together by much thinner wire; the bracelet action includes antique silver beads and bits of recycled chandelier that seem to orbit the wrist like tiny planets, but not tiny dwarf planets (Walk away, Pluto. Just walk away).
Check out an online gallery of the work, and to score Moms a piece for as few as 50 bucks, email ME at melliott82@yahoo.com

Cook with Her: Mother's Day Brunch Class
Sun May 9, 10:30am-1pm, at the Ferry Plaza; Embarcadero
Hit the Ferry Building for a hands-on class taught by Parties That Cook! (real-deal chefs who've trained at Postrio, One Market, etc). The two of you'll make (and scarf) seven delicious courses -- ranging from buckwheat blini with creme fraiche/chives, to ham n' Gruyere croque monsieurs, to sour creme n' raspberry coffee cakes, all while sippin' bottomless mimosas, just like that Sex in the City episode (it's Mother's day, so just this once, let Mom be Carrie, you Samantha-esque hooker!).
Score tix before it sells out

Camera: Sony® Cyber-shot®
What's the smoothest feature on the new Sony® Cyber-shot® cameras? Try the iSweep Panorama mode: just press the shutter, shoot with a sweeping motion, and the camera will do the rest, capturing the whole scene whether you have five friends, or five hundred. Or no friends and just a lot of trees.
Find out more about iSweep Panorama mode at Sony.com/Innovations.

Immortalize Her: A Day in the Life Photography Package
Book this pro photographer (best known for her wedding work) to chill with your family for a whole day as you do your thing at three or so of Mom's favorite (pre-selected) locales. Lauri'll snap tons of classily candid, documentary-style shots, before editing them down to 300 or so winners which you'll get as 4x6 prints or on DVD. Mention Thrillist and the service is yours for half-off, extra cash you'll need for bribing mom to allow you not to participate.
Lock Lauri down (my word!) at ZoomPhotography.net

Hit WB for an abundant, multi-course brunch made up of options that range from smoked sturgeon, to Maine lobster bisque, to local halibut papillote, with a big hunk of lemon pound cake for dessert, which you should then follow with a big hunk of beefcake at the Nob Hill Revue if you're a really nice son.
