Emeralds For Mother’s Day


Whenever you go outside on busy streets, you will stumble across people that have their individual sense of fashion. You will find women wearing earrings, necklaces or rings with similar colors, giving you an oceanic feeling with various shades of blue and green. 

The hot season is just round the corner and it often makes a refreshing sight. If you wish to join the trend, you can get these emeralds for your Mother’s Day gift. If you’re unable to spend time looking for the perfect emerald stones, you can browse through the online stores as well. Emeralds are green and it is one of the hottest summer colors this year. 

Before you start shopping for gemstones, you must do some basic research on them. Gemstones are known to be symbolic and may sometimes possess mysterious powers. Traditionally, emeralds were worn to promote love, healing and contentment. These are some of the feelings you might want to pass on to your mother. There are different kinds of emeralds available in the market today. Some of them are synthesized and come with cracks in them. Any reputable jeweler should be able to tell you the difference between a real emerald and a fake stone. If quality is important to you, then you must always purchase your gemstones from reputable stores. While making a purchase, always ask the jeweler if the stones are treated, the kind of treatments and whether the treatments are permanent or not.

Natural and synthetic emeralds tend to have the same chemical composition and it makes it hard to differentiate them. If you are looking for affordable emerald jewelry then it would be suggestive to opt for fake emeralds, however if money is not a concern then you must always choose the natural gemstones.

Interflora Flooded With Complaints Over Flower Deliveries On Mother’s Day


Interflora, a British floral company has been forced to issue more than 100 apologies after consumers started citing complains on social networking websites. It is said that the bouquets ordered from Interflora were simply dumped at the doorsteps; some of them infested with bugs and some did not appear at all.

There are hundreds of angry consumers from all across the world. People bought expensive flowers for their mothers, for the Mother’s Day celebrations in Britain. Most consumers got a confirmation email that their requested flowers have been delivered, which was never the case. It left the daughters in tears, while the mothers eagerly waited for the flowers.

Everyone wanted to make their mothers feel special, only if the flowers could have arrived on time. When they tried to reach the floral agency, they kept saying that the flowers were delivered and a small percentage of the orders had a problem. With more than 300 people complaining about the flower bouquets, it seems to be a lame excuse.

Online forums and social networking sites were filled with complains over flower deliveries. A customer called Margaret Hall took the issue on Facebook, complaining that the flowers shown on the web pages are very different from the ones, which are actually delivered.

Interflora just sent out a simple message to all the upset customers “Please accept our heartfelt apologies and someone from the customer service team will look into this”. There was no statement issued by the company, despite making multiple attempts to reach them.

When you think No.1 can understand you,
When your love is rejected by others,

Just close your eyes, & see, her face who loves you

who care for you in loneliness,
& dies when you cry.
She is no 1, but your sweet loving mother.
Love your mom first and always.
