Mother’s Day Gift Guide
MY MOTHER’S DAY GIFT
When I became a mother, my husband Craig asked me what I want for Mother’s Day and I knew exactly what I wanted!
The first year I was a mother, I asked him to make a video of our family.
Every year I ask for another video for my Mother’s Day gift. I cherish these videos so much! I love them so much I thought I would give you a sneak preview to one of the videos:
Mother’s Day Gift Guide
If you are looking for a special Mother’s Day gift for you mom or friend, here are my top picks that are healthy and are the type of gifts that “keep on giving” because every time your mother uses the gift, she will remember your thoughtfulness!
1. SUGAR FREE CHOCOLATE
Who doesn’t love chocolate? Especially when it is sugar free and tastes delicious! These keto sugar-free Chocolates make a wonderful Mother’s Day gift! The Good Chocolate is the healthiest sugar free chocolate and my kids love it!

2. TRIP TO CROATIA, ITALY OR PORTUGAL
I don’t know about you but my love language is quality time and adventures!
I’m not one to have an expensive purse, I cut my own hair, but I will spend money on traveling and exploring the WORLD!
If your mother is like me, get her a gift of a lifetime and travel with me to the most beautiful places! Your mother will be treated like a QUEEN on these trips!
What would be better than gifting your mother a trip? Gift yourself this trip and join us too! As a mother, I would love to explore and travel with my children!

3. KitchenAid Stand Mixer
Find my FAVORITE 8 quart stand mixer (that can make 2 loaves of Protein Sparing bread at once!) HERE. (makes a GREAT gift!)

4. Non-toxic Beauty Products!
My mom is a hard person to buy gifts for. She has everything she wants! But beauty products are always a welcomed gift!
And until April 27th, you get 20% OFF your order!
If you are constantly using shampoos, lotions and make-up with chemicals you are creating a Toxic Liver. Your liver plays a major role in weight loss. The liver is a chief organ in the body for metabolism functions. Keeping our liver at optimal health should be a main focus of healing your body.
Making changes in my pantry as well as my bathroom pantry wasn’t an overnight process. I slowly learned how even though we were impeccable with our food choices we still were getting chemicals in our body with the lotions, shampoos and products I was putting on my skin as well as my kids (who are most vulnerable). That’s when I decided to throw out the chemicals and start using products that are not only healthy for my family, but they are healthy for the environment.
What we put on our skin can be just as important as what we put in our mouths. Beautycounter has a great line of cosmetics, shampoos, sunscreens, baby products and more that are chemical free.

5. CHILi PAD
The best gift I have ever gifted myself was a CHILi PAD! I always suffered with poor sleep but having my chilipad changed everything! I am no longer hot when I sleep!
We LOVE this mattress pad! We have long talked about how a cooler bedroom can be very helpful for getting better and deeper sleep. This pad can help you stay cool and save of air conditioning costs as you don’t have to make your room as cold. You can set your desired temperature and it cools you right under your covers.

6. The BEST blender
My hard boiled egg pudding recipe is a very popular recipe around the World! It warms my heart that everyone loves it so much! However, some people said it was too grainy. It will be grainy if you do not have a great blender!
I use my blender daily! No lie. I use it for everything. I make my sauces in it, salad dressings (my Ranch is the best!), my keto soups that I want pureed, and it makes my hard boiled egg pudding into the creamiest chocolate mousse!
Yes, a quality blender is a pricy gift, but I went through a cheap blender almost every year. My blender has lasted 10 years! It is good investment in my mind!

10. KETO EBOOKS
Did you know I saved my BEST keto recipes for my ebooks?
I did this because ebooks help out my small family more than my published books which most of the profit goes to the publisher and the seller.
If you would like to make a difference and support a small family rather than making a minuscule sale for a large company, I am happy to announce that you can now get my books as a high quality ebook that works on any platform (all done by my wonderful husband!).
This is an ebook format that works on any computer or mobile device. It is a beautiful pdf that has all the full color pages and layouts as the printed books with click-able table of contents and searching capabilities. This is extremely useful when trying to find a recipe. These books are much higher quality than the ebook platforms (kindle, apple). Plus, most of the profits don’t go to Amazon or apple!
If you prefer print books over ebooks, I suggest printing the books out and put the pages in a 3 ring binder! You can organize pages and recipes as you like! I put my favorite recipes in the beginning!

11. SCAN PAN
I love my cast iron skillets but no matter how much I season my pans, scrambled eggs stick too much! This is why I love my scan pans! Finally a non-stick pan without the harmful coatings!
Click scan pans I love!

Maria and Craig Emmerich, thank you for your continual education, influence, and support. I am completely in love with this way of eating and am determined to impact as many lives as I possibly can moving forward!
I appreciate the two of you for paving the way for me.” – Casey
The pic at the start of this article takes me back to when you first got the boys….and HOW LONG AGO was that? I remember you trying to cook while wearing one child, and holding the hand of the other. You even wrote a “one-handed” cookbook.
Awe!! Yes, it really does. Love those memories!!
I was thinking the SAME thing!
Such a beautiful and perfect Mother’s Day gift. You are truly blessed. As I am to have you in my life, along with my beautiful baby girl who is now a 36 year old amazing young women. Thank you for sharing your video and your boys with us.
Thank you!
The video is such a good idea! How special!!
Thank you!
Maria, these are great ideas!
With the art of fat loss book and the education I’ve received from your videos, I have FINALLY been able to lose the last 10lbs that have plagued me for almost 4 years. I’m still in shock that I’ve been able to lose it. Nothing helped except you! In order to maintain the fat loss, would you suggest continuing with PSMF once a week? I’m such a food addict which complicates things and I can see myself regaining the weight. Also among your other recipes, love love the egg pudding and bourbon chicken. Truly delicious! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!! Way to go!
PSMF is a tool for weight loss. So if in maintenance you shouldn’t need it. Just stay keto and find the level of protein and fat in the diet to maintain. But if you do want to lose weight again in the future, you can add some days back in. 🙂
