In previous years, Mother’s Day gifts seemed simpler. They could be as easy as taking mom out to a Sunday brunch and surprising her with a thoughtful handwritten card paired with a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers. This year, as many of us around the world continue to stay home because of COVID-19, celebrating Mother’s Day may look a little different.

At-home date ideas used to be an inventive way to spice things up and break away from the familiar going-out tur of dinner and a movie. Now that the world is changing, many are staying in out of necessity and might be falling into a rut at the house, too. How can we spin new life into our stay-at-home dates?

Everyone is doing what they can in these hard times to stay upbeat. Having something funny to lift the spirits is essential for our mental health! Luckily, celebrities and people all over the world are coming together on social media and sharing more than just selfies or pictures of their morning avocado toast.

As we enter another week of working remotely and social distancing, our to-do list of things to fill our time in quarantine seems to be getting shorter. To help us get through these strange times and to dissipate the disheartening news flooding our phones and televisions, our staff has curated their favorite books that have helped them get through COVID-19.

“Back in the day,” (AKA, before COVID-19) there were many ways to get alcohol—liquor stores, grocery stores, gifts from friends, bars, and restaurants. But opportunities to browse the aisles in stores or to go grab a drink with a friend have temporarily been disrupted due to the current international crisis, and we’re falling back to plan B on how to enjoy a drink without leaving the comfort of our homes.

Now that we’ve been WFH and many people have been in quarantine for over a month now, it is very easy to start feeling down or anxious. As we are all struggling with being cooped up and the uncertainty of what is to come, we often try to search for something that makes us feel better.

To try and relieve some stress from parents during these uncertain times, many A-list celebrities are livestreaming bedtime stories as part of the Save with Stories initiative, founded by Jennifer Garner and Amy Adams.

During these uncertain times, it’s OK to feel overwhelmed by the news about COVID-19. That’s why The Office and Jack Ryan star John Krasinski decided to create his own YouTube channel called Some Good News. It is dedicated to featuring all positive stories to remind us, as Krasinski said, “No matter how tough life can get, there’s always good in the world.”

Once upon a time, it was just a matter of convenience to have your groceries delivered to your doorstep. Amid the spread of COVID-19, it is now one of the several safety precautions one can take to practice social distancing. Thankfully, over the last couple of years, the growth of wine subscriptions has skyrocketed for knowledgeable vino drinkers and for those who aren’t as familiar.

"I'm bored.", "What can we do?" I've said it my self more times than I can count, so you know the kids are probably wearing it out during this stay-at-home mandate! Let's face it; we are all going a little stir crazy. Well, we've called in some reinforcements—old-school moms!

During this time of unusual workplaces and working from home, it is so important to keep all your work items organized! We all find it hard to get into the swing of things when we're not at the office, and even when we get back to the office, will we have our motivation?

One of the main factors that can make or break your morale is how you dress. Putting "real" clothes on can help give you a sense of being in the "real world," so you don't feel so sluggish! Here are a few of our favorite outfits, brands, and accessories that can help inspire you on how to dress when working from home.
