A Mother's Day Tea Bouquet from DAVIDsTEA Giveaway.

Congratulations to Laura!

Hello Darlings,

Just in time for Mother's Day, I am excited to give away a pretty DAVIDsTEA bouquet. After all, what could be a better way to show your mother your love than with a handful of pretty flowers...

... and perhaps, a tea cup full of floral delight. Enjoy a PERFECT glass mug of Chrysanthemum Flowers, Mother’s Little Helper, or Mamma Mia with your mom on Mother's Day. The gift will include a DAVIDsTEA perfect glass mug with a tin of the three floral teas.

Hello Darlings,

I always admire those mothers, who seem to have it all figured out. A career, a supportive husband, incredible physique with a pair of well-behaved children. Among those mothers is mine!

She not only defended her Ph.D while in her last trimester with me, she was a professor in Ukraine, she established a wonderful career in Canada, is happily married to my father for the past 25 years, a wicked cook, the best mother, and doesn't look a day over 40 — she is a wonder woman, in my mind!

Although children of my own are far from my mind at this stage in life, they are definitely part of my future. Whenever a topic of family arises, I always wonder how can one woman have so many façades. In the modern day, she is not only expected to be a caring mother, a loving wife, a chef, a house-wife but also a business woman and a complete knock-out. No pressure at all! So can any girl become a "Victoria Beckham" minus the scary heels?

Hello Darlings,

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend! This weekend was Orthodox Easter (the Easter that my family celebrates), so I had a lot of festivities and even wore an apron to show off my domestic skills...Well, according to my mother my remarkable culinary skills are not so impressive, but I do have mad Easter egg making skills.

Having been raised in a traditional Catholic family, I do attend church. Part of Orthodox Easter ritual is the blessing of the basket. As community gathers at the church the priest blesses the many culinary delights that each household brings. It is a special tradition that my family celebrates. For those curious about the religious ins and outs, Wikipedia is your source. In the meantime, shall we dive into the topic of what to wear?
