This means a lot by letting her know you’ve grown and be able to take care not only yourself and your mom as well. On top of that, invite the family over for brunch . Seek out organic, natural ingredients and shop for fresh items at your local farmer’s market to keep the meal low on the carbon scale and high on deliciousness.

Flowers are never a bad idea, except when said flowers have to travel long distances to get to your mom, with tons of carbon dioxide emitted in transit.
