Mother’s Day is May 13, 2018, here in the United States, so for this week’s edition of Friday Finds we are focusing on gifts that moms would love to receive – and we should know – because they are all gifts that this mom would love to receive! 

Friday Finds for the Week of May 4, 2018 - Mother's Day Edition

The only wine-ing that Mom will approve of this Mother’s Day is the vino. (Yes, I totally stole that from the latest Yummly newsletter.) So for the wine-loving Mom in your life we have these picks for you to check out.


The Original Vacu Vin Wine Saver with 2 Vacuum Stoppers

The Original Vacu Vin Wine Saver

Cracked open a new bottle of wine and realized you just weren’t able to polish it off? This amazing wine saver will keep a bottle of wine fresh for up to a week after it’s been opened!


Wine Rocks: BlizeTec Reusable Wine Cubes and Chilling Stones

BlizeTec Reusable Wine Cubes and Chilling Stones

If you love a cold drink but hate the watered-down taste from melting ice cubes, these reusable wine cubes and chilling stones are perfect to serve mom her favorite beverage, fresh and cold!


SipCaddy Bath and Shower Portable Cupholder

What mom wouldn’t love this inventive way to keep a glass of wine handy as you relax the day away in a bubble bath? I’ve already sent pictures to the boys and told them that’s what I want them to get me for Mother’s Day!


Nuni Tortilla Toaster

Nuni Tortilla Toaster

We mentioned this amazing little toaster in our April 6 edition of Friday Finds but I had to share this with y’all again! My contact thinks that it’s the neatest thing in the world too! The Nuni Team brought taco fixins to their office and just ONE Nuni. They had 50 tacos fed to the crew in less than 10 minutes. Now THAT is amazing right there!

 

 

No more burned tortillas and no soggy tortillas that were heated in the microwave (guilty!) with The Nuni Tortilla Toaster. Psst – The Nuni is usually priced at $99, but you can grab one right now for just $69! On sale 5/4 – 5/5 so go order it right now!


Jessie Steele Aprons

I absolutely adore these aprons – I would have loved to have had matching aprons for April and I when she was younger.

Jessie Steele is on a mission to make women channel their inner icon and feel fearlessly feminine! Inspired by the fab women of the 40s and 50s, these aprons are all about nostalgia and bringing the fun back into entertaining friends and families.

Spoil Mom with Mionetto This Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is the perfect opportunity to show the special woman in your life just how much she means to you. Even though we love the Chocolate Pizza Company, take a break from the standard chocolate and flowers this year and give her something she really wants – massive amounts of delicious bubbly!

Mionetto offers truly exceptional wines that appeal to any palate, and can even be used in many cocktail recipes. So go ahead, put a smile on her face, and share one of these delicious bottles of bubbly with her this year!

Mionetto Luxury Valdobbiadene Superiore DOCG

Mionetto’s Luxury Valdobbiadene Superiore DOCG ($19 SRP)

This wine will immediately excite mom’s palate! The aroma of exotic fruits, apple, and pear immediately greet you after you pop the cork!

Mionetto Luxury Cartizze DOCG

Mionetto Luxury Cartizze DOCG ($45 SRP)

This is the perfect well-balanced combination of a crisp taste and elegance in one bottle. A majestic, multi-faceted bouquet releases seductive impressions of apple and pear, alongside notes of citrus and glazed almond, making this a prime choice for a lazy Sunday brunch with Mom.

Mionetto Prestige Rose

Mionetto Sparkling Rose ($14 SRP)

Mionetto also collaborated with mixologist Justin Noel to create the delicious Lavender Blush cocktail. A blend of gin, fresh grapefruit juice, and Lavender syrup will make the perfect libation for mom, and all topped off with Mionetto Sparkling Rose!

Mionetto Prosecco DOC Brute Mini-Bottles

Mionetto also just released the Mionetto mini-bottles in both brut and rosé sparkling wine. I was not sure that I was going to like the brut at first, but it was really good! Perfect for grab-and-go as we head into warmer weather.


Breakfast in Bed for Mom this Mother’s Day from Jarlsberg Cheese

One of my favorite things about Mother’s Day? I get the day off from cooking and cleaning up after everyone! With ready to be served Jarlsberg Cheese, your kids can help make breakfast in bed for mom on Mother’s Day.

This Mother’s Day, get the special day started off right with some simple-to-prepare and cheesy-good breakfast dishes from renowned Chef George Duran!

[yumprint-recipe id=’90’]

Spicy Tater Tot Breakfast Muffins

Calories: 1524kcal

Ingredients

  • 36 frozen tater tots
  • 2 cups Jarlsberg® cheese grated and separated
  • 8 Large eggs
  • 2 Jalapeño peppers seeds and veins removed and chopped finely
  • ½ red pepper chopped finely
  • 2 tbsp. heavy cream
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. ground pepper
  • Finely chopped parsley for garnish
  • Non-stick spray
  • 12 cup muffin tin pan

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425° F and spray 12 cup muffin tin with non-stick spray.
  • Place 3 tater tots into each muffin tin and bake for 10 minutes. Remove carefully and use a small spoon or fork to gently press down to form the base and sides of each tater tot muffin.
  • Divide 1 cup of Jarlsberg® cheese throughout the tater tots and place back in the oven for 10 more minutes.
  • In the meantime beat the eggs in a large bowl and combine the jalapeño, red peppers, heavy cream, salt and pepper. Once the tater tot muffins are done, carefully divide egg mixture into each tater tot cup. Top evenly with remaining cup of grated Jarlsberg® and place back into the oven for 10 minutes.
  • Remove each muffin and allow to cool for 5 minutes on a cooling rack before garnishing with parsley and serving.
  • Makes 1 dozen muffins.

Notes

This recipe can be made non-spicy by replacing the jalapeño with the same amount of green bell peppers.

Cheese elevates every occasion, and Mother’s Day is no exception! What a great way to surprise mom with a delicious, simple-to-prepare breakfast served by her favorite people in the world: you and your kids!
