If you really want to impress your mother this Mother’s Day, be sure to bring her an organic breakfast in bed. It’s easy–you don’t have to go all out. Just prepare something you are comfortable making and put it on a nice tray–remember presentation is everything. I recommend a super simple sampling of:

Coffee
Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
Cage free Organic Eggs
French Toast with Green Mountain Coffee’s Organic Maple Syrup

Local Fresh Fruit

Bring to her while she’s just waking up, complete with a card and some local organic flowers . . . no big-expensive gift necessary!

For the mother who loves wine, opt for some local, biodynamic or organic selections. A  will ensure your wine is both delicious and carbon-light.

If you live in or near California, then you’ve got a great selection of local wines in your back yard. California is especially famous for fantastic vineyards such as the Landmark Vineyard in Sonoma. Landmark’s Syrah is an excellent complement to any romantic dinner. With, “dark plum, peach and black raspberry fruit, roasted coffee bean, chamois and vanilla,” the wine is sure to work well for a decadent desert too.

Other popular domestic wines come from such wineries as the Frey Vineyard of Mendocino County, the Bonterra Vineyard also of Mendocino County and Ravenswood, a popular vineyard in Sonoma Valley.
