• Spicelab

  

  2007 MOTHER'S DAY GUIDE

  Admittedly, some of mom’s dinners could qualify as science experiments. Spicelab mounts her seasonings on the wall – freeing up cabinet space, and making spices easily accessible. Frames available in nine different colors. Test tubes come filled with rosemary, fennel seeds, crushed chili peppers, minced garlic, coriander, basil, oregano, and ammonium nitrate. (Kidding! I kid.)

  (12.5" x 10.5")

• Business Card File

  

  2007 MOTHER'S DAY GUIDE

  A card from the dentist, the contractor, the twelve contacts from a networking event, and one from the annoyingly efficient mom who had play-date calling cards printed for her toddler – all of them are smashed in the bottom of mom’s behemoth purse. Who has time to plug that information into an address book? This spare, matte aluminum box lets her organize business cards by simply dropping them in, no further effort required. Now she has time for a cocktail.

• TomTom ONE Portable GPS Vehicle Navigation System

  

  2007 MOTHER'S DAY GUIDE

  When you give your mom freeway directions, does she ask you to say it again without the “North/South part?” Does she get lost three blocks from home? Yeah. Me too. A friend of ours is a user interface specialist who researched and compared all the popular navigation systems for a client. He eventually bought this one for his folks, so I got one too. TomTom has changed my life, and its touch-screen interface is about as straightforward as an ATM machine. It not only navigates for you, but when you take a wrong turn, it gets you back on track. Go in on one with your siblings, and you’ll never have to give your mom directions again.

• Blue Bottle Coffee Subscription

  

  OF-THE-MONTH-CLUB GIFT GUIDE

  Blue Bottle is a San Francisco-based small batch roaster that’s a little OCD about coffee. As their site says, “We take freshness and small-batch roasting to an extreme not considered practical anywhere else in the coffee business.” What does that mean exactly? Essentially, a cup of coffee so delicious that you feel it in your spine. The good news for you? They offer bean gift subscriptions. You need never sleep again.

• Apple-ation Apple Brandy

  

  TOP SHELF FATHER'S DAY GUIDE

  God bless a vintner with a pet project. Guy Davis decided to take advantage of the organic apple orchards in the Russian River Valley to make small batch apple brandy. Davis eschews the usual practice of fermenting just the apple juice; however, he leaves the peels and fruit in during fermentation for a deeper apple flavor. The results are spectacular.
