If your mother is anything like mine, she will tell you she does not want anything for Mother’s Day this year. This is a lie. In fact, she does want something. Wrapsody, in the heart of downtown Auburn, is the perfect place to get that special something for her! They have every little gift you could imagine—including lovely candles and local art. She will love anything you bring home from here.

Take the load of cooking off of your mother this year and treat her to Lucy’s for brunch. They are famous for their brunch, and we highly recommend their blueberry lemon ricotta pancakes (like seriously). The cute and girly atmosphere will make the most ideal Mother’s Day brunch, and she will feel very appreciated.
