Mom Central received samples of Liquid Palisade in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
An at home manicure can sometimes prove messy without the steady hand of professional nail technician. But we can’t always make it to the salon, often opting for our own version of a less than luxurious manicure at home. Liquid Palisade, an easy-to-apply barrier liquid proves necessary for a successful at-home manicure. Whether you’re rushing to slather on some polish before heading out the door, or dedicating some relaxing time to yourself—Liquid Palisade makes applying polish simple and precise.

Mom Central received a complimentary manicure and pedicure in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
Spring is officially here in Boston and I know it is time to whip out my flip-flops and sandals. As a busy mom, I often find it hard to designate time for myself. There never seems to be enough time in the day to set aside some time for myself. Fortunately, I was offered a break from the daily grind and recently found myself at MiniLuxe in Wellesley, Massachusetts.
Just from the street appeal I could tell that a treat awaited me. The sleek, clean modern décor proves inviting and I was greeted by two friendly faces upon entering. They promptly escorted me to my pedicure station where my technician awaited my arrival and greeted me with a warm hello and smile.

Disclosure: Mom Central received samples from Rosie’s Bakery in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
Mother’s Day proves to be the one day where we Moms can count on being pampered—that includes having someone else cook for us. From tarts and cupcakes to glazed cookies and fudge brownies, surprise Mom this Mother’s Day with fresh baked goods from Rosie’s Bakery. These sweets will not only satisfy her sweet tooth—they also look beautiful.
A favorite of ours here at Mom Central, Rosie’s Bakery never disappoints. We loved the Snow Queen Cupcake that boasted a delicious butter cream frosting and a decadent raspberry center. For those of us who love chocolate, the Fudge Swirl Brownies proved too tempting to resist—and were instantly gratifying.
Find all that Rosie’s has to offer online at rosiesbakery.com. Orders can be purchased by phone or in store.

Disclosure: Mom Central received samples from Bunnery Natural Foods in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
In the mornings, we often find ourselves rushing out the door—only to notice our growling stomachs on the way out. From oatmeal and granola, to fluffy pancake mixes, Bunnery Natural Foods offers up some pretty satiating morning treats. Hailing from Jackson, Wyoming and boasting flavors like Banana Honey-Nut, Cranberry Nut-Vanilla, and Wild Blueberry Pancake and Waffle Mix, your morning routine just got a whole lot tastier. Crunchy and packed with great ingredients, Bunnery’s Natural breakfast selections fuel the morning.
We tested these delicious granolas and found that the Banana Honey-Nut was just a tad sweet and had notes of coconut. It was a delicious additive to our yogurts and tasted equally as great as an afternoon snack on it’s own.
Try the Bunnery’s recipe banana bread using Bunnery Banana Honey-Nut Granola. A great recipe to whip up for mom on Mother’s Day!

Disclosure: Mom Central received a copy of the cookbook in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
For Moms with picky eaters, housing a stash of pasta boxes proves to be the only way you’ll make it through dinner each night. For palate-compromised family members who squeal at the site of steak or wince at the smell of vegetables, noodles often prove to be the only option—but they needn’t be boring.

Mom Central received a necklace from Figs & Ginger in order to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.
As Mother’s Day rolls around each year, we Moms often find that simple is best when it comes to a day that celebrates you—a homemade card, a noodle necklace, or breakfast in bed! But often, we are presented by thoughtful purchased gifts from our loved ones. A perfect gift for Mom (or for Moms to request!), Figs & Ginger helps create a memorable Mother’s Day through their creative and thoughtful line of jewelry.
With necklaces that display a “Momma” and her “Chicks,” to pendant necklaces that represent a mother’s love—Figs & Ginger lets you personalize and customize for a well-deserved gift.
