What are you giving Mom for Mother’s Day? It is just around the corner – on Sunday May 13 – and I shared some fabulous gifts under $50 on “Better CT”, a morning show that airs on the CBS affiliate in the Hartford, CT area. The host, Scot Haney, was so much fun to do the segment with, and I may have even gotten a date out of it. 🙂
