Mother’s Day is next weekend, May 10th! Have you ordered something for your mom? How about your MOL? (That’s Mother-In -Law). Well, if you want to go local, here is my Top Ten List:
Trunk Show
Tonight from 5:30 – 8:30 p.m. or Wednesday, April 29th, from 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. head to 99 Westover 37205 for a fabulous trunk show featuring Rowanne McKnight’s jewelry, Hannah Lavey’s by hand by hannah stationery as well as Mary Catherine Healy’s hand-painted stools and tote bags. We all love something original, unique and local. You will not be disappointed. Stop by and you are sure to find that something special!

Climb Nashville
A year membership. Go by Saturday May 16th from 8:00 a.m. to 12:-00 p.m. and buy one for just $400! This includes all the yoga, climbing, core conditioning and kick-boxing you can take.

Queen for a Day
The bottom of this list, but the perennial top of all my gift wishes: A night, by myself, at a hotel… with a spa attached. I want to stay up late watching sappy girl movies, have room service, sleep late and then get a massage. Join the family for a late lunch the next day. Gaylord Opryand has Relache Spa and is local company as well as a fun one night retreat!
