Harry & David sent me a Mother’s Day Tower of Treats Gift Deluxe (ARV $59) to review and has offered to give an identical gift tower to one lucky Foodie with Family reader in celebration of Mother’s Day. I do so love Harry & David.
You know ‘Mom’ is ‘Wow’ upside down, right?
How perfect is that? Every mother is aware how very upside down and wowed you spend most of your days. We think we’ve gone down the rabbit hole with diapers and spit-up, but every single day proves that you ain’t seen nothing yet. It’s the beginning of a lifetime of your heart being a dishrag that just keeps sopping up love and being wrung out just in time to soak up more love that you didn’t see coming.
…Just in time for Mother’s Day, my good friends at Harry & David ride to the rescue once again with a perfect gift to give to a deserving mother in your life, whether it’s yours, your spouse’s, your own, or a really nice lady down the street who mothers all the lonely kids. THIS mom is telling you that a stack of pretty boxes filled with treats of all kinds and tied together with a beautiful satin ribbon is a splendiferous way to show your appreciation. Have you TRIED their Royal Riviera pears yet? Let me explain how good the pears are… Each opportunity I’ve had to review and give away one of Harry & David’s gifts, I’ve deliberately chosen one with the pears because they rock my world. There is no other pear that is so tender and juicy that it’s easiest to eat if you cut it in half and scoop the flesh with a spoon. Seriously. What mom wouldn’t love that?
It’s not just full of pears, though; look at all the goodies in there…
Most of us have more than one mama for whom to buy or make a gift. If you’re stuck for ideas, you must hop over to Harry&David and look at their selection of Mother’s Day gifts. If your mom loves gardening, cheesecake, fruit, wine, cheese, flowers, tea, candy, chocolates, cake, cookies, wreaths, and birdhouses, they have you covered and there’s still seven days to order and have your gift arrive on time!
The giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Terah, the college student! Please check your email and get back to me quickly. Your mama is going to be thrilled!

Meryl says
I’d like this for myself!
Barb B says
I would give it to my Mom, because she gives so much of herself to others.
sharonjo says
I would love to send this to about a dozen special people in my life! If I have to choose just one though, it would be my mother. Thanks so much for the lovely giveaway.
Lisa says
Not sure yet; already sending flowers to distant Mom and Mom-in-love; if I win it I will have to wait on the Lord a bit and see what He says!
Lauren says
I would love this for my sister, Heather! She is a mother of seven, and NEVER does anything for herself. She gives tirelessly to those around her, is a great mom, wife, and a wonderful sister. She is simply a fantastic human being who could use a good pick me up now and again!
Rachel says
This looks wonderful. I wish I could get my family to give me one.
Tonia says
I changed my mind — if I win I’ll give it to YOU Rachel! ‘Cause I can make all the baked stuff for my mom and go up to our warehouse or down to the Stemilt fruit store and get fabulous pears. Hope you have a lovely Mother’s day! 🙂
Annie M says
I would love my sister Linda to get this, she is the best mother, sister and friend!!
Margaret says
Mother-in-law! It’s her first year with a daughter and I think she could use a little pick me up these days.
Phyllis says
I would love to send this to my mom who is in rehab after falling and breaking her foot. She’s being a real trooper, but she doesn’t like to be away from home and I would to find a way to cheer her up.
Elisabeth says
I would love to send this to my Mom! She soooo deserves it!
Connie says
I would love to give this to my mom. She is such a lovely gift to me.
sarah k. says
I would like to win it for my sister, who after our mom passed away from cancer stepped up and was a rock during such a hard time, I couldn’t have gone through everything without her.
erika says
I would love to win this for my Mom. Lord knows she deserves it for putting up with my brother and me over the years. We certainly didn’t make it easy for her. She is a total bad ass and the only thing she loves more than wine is good food so it would be perfect.
Erika Q says
My mom is a dynamo: always up and going, going, going, taking care of my nieces, nephews, cousins, family and friends alongside her (grown) kids. I would love to give this to her so that she can sit down and relax with some delicious treats! Thanks!
LynnG says
For sure, I’d give it to my mother. And she’s so generous that I know she’ll share it with the rest of us!
Kimberly P. says
I would send this to my mom. She lives pretty far away from me, and this gift would brighten her day! She hasn’t been feeling well for quite a while and what better way to feel some long distance love than to receive a surprise gift basket in the mail?! Thanks for an opportunity to pass on some sunshine on Mother’s Day. Love your blog! 🙂
Kristina N. says
While I would love this for myself, my mother-in-law could not be more amazing. Not only has she blessed me with my husband, but she’s done it completely without reservations and has welcomed me as her daughter. I would love to surprise my mother-in-law with this gift.
amanda says
I would give to my mom, she is my world my hero…
Joleen says
My mother-in-law has been a great blessing to me for over 40 years and I’d love to surprise her with this lovely gift.
Terah says
I would love to give this to my mom. As a poor college student I could never afford that on my own.
Sara says
Congratulations lovely hearted girl! I hope your Mama loves every bite!
