Last-minute Mother's Day gifts with a twist

Choosing a Mother's Day gift can be tough. So many things to say "thank you" for, but so many identical gifts in the shops... after all, how many pot plants can a mother own? At LucyCooks we believe there's nothing better than a thoughtful, personal gift – a present that's just that little bit different. So this year, show Mum (or Gran, or Auntie, or Godmother) how much you care with our special Mothering Funday cookery course on Sunday 14th March!

Most mums would love the chance to spend time creating something special in the kitchen, but the boring hard work – planning a menu, buying the ingredients, and, horror of horrors, clearing up afterwards – can really get in the way. Our Mothering Funday cooking course takes care of all that, giving the special lady herself a chance to have fun and create something delicious in our well-appointed kitchens. It's a relaxed and fuss-free way to spend some quality time with family and friends – and it's a good deal more memorable than a dull old chrysanthemum!

A few places are still available on our Mothering Funday course – book now and give your mum a Mother’s Day gift she'll always remember! Of course, being a mum is a year-round job, so don't forget the huge choice of cooking courses that runs throughout the year here at LucyCooks... whether your mum is savvy with a skillet, or still a novice with a knife, our courses will inspire and entertain on any occasion!
