A Sweet Mother's Day Gift Idea from Ladurée and Mikimoto

Mother’s Day has its detractors—those who say it’s a commercial holiday, that every day should be Mother’s Day, and so on. But the truth is, it’s a day devoted to celebrating our moms and thanking them for everything they’ve done for us. Who can find fault with that?

PERHAPS most famous as the city that built and is now the final resting place of Captain Scott’s ill-fated Antarctic exploration ship Discovery,
Dundee has been the butt of many a joke. But if you haven’t been paying attention, you might not have noticed it is undergoing something of a renaissance.
Perhaps most exciting is the fact the V&A chose this city (pop 150,000) not the more obvious fashionable destinations of Edinburgh or Glasgow as the site for its first outpost outside London. A dramatic dockside space that will showcase Scottish design as well as provide a venue for major international touring exhibitions, work is due to begin on the building next year, with an opening date set for 2015.
