Celebrate Your Mother with Wyoming Buffalo Company
By: Katelyn Parker
May brings May flowers, graduation, an excuse to drink margaritas, a chance to pay thanks and remember those who have fallen, and on one very special Sunday, we get the chance to celebrate and spoil our mothers. So many mothers sacrifice everything for their children which makes it difficult to get the perfect gift that fully expresses your gratitude. In the search for the perfect Mother’s Day gift, we went to Wyoming Buffalo Company to see what we could find. It’s no surprise that we were able to find some great gift baskets that are perfect for the occasion. Lisa has pre-crafted baskets that are perfect for mom and convenient for the shopper, but if you are looking for something custom, you can personalize the items in your basket. Here are some of the baskets we created for the mothers in our lives.
Sweet
For the mother with a sweet tooth, we chose:
· Express Chai tea- Loose leaf tea with excellent flavor made locally by Mystic Monk Coffee.
· Huckleberry caramels- These sweet treats melt in your mouth and have the perfect hint of that huckleberry flavor we all love.
· A box of Cowboy Chocolates- A mouthwatering assortment of chocolates in an adorable rustic wooden box.
· A dark chocolate and sea salt bar- A delectable dark chocolate bar with the perfect combo of salty and sweet.
· A wild huckleberry chocolate bar- Huckleberries and chocolate were just meant to go together.
· Caramel and huckleberry popcorn- Popcorn is one of the best snacks but when it is flavored with caramel and huckleberry, it’s even better.
· Huckleberry candles- Although not edible, these sweet-smelling candles make any room smell delicious.
We are so excited about this delicious compilation of products. Together they make the perfect sweet gift.
Savory
For the mother that loves to cook, we carefully chose an assortment of spices that can complement any kitchen. In this savory basket we included:
· Chugwater Chili spice blend- Your mother will thank you for this amazing chili seasoning!
· Wild West Spice Company’s Prairie Potato and Hankerin’ Honey BBQ- The Prairie Potato seasoning is great on roasted potatoes, and the Hankerin’ Honey BBQ is fantastic on chicken.
· Horseradish sauce- Wyoming Buffalo Company has several great sauces to choose from but this Horseradish sauce is incredible on steak, vegetables, sandwiches, and more.
· Zap’s Applewood Smoked Pink Himalayan Salt- A little bit of this salt goes a long way and enhances the flavor of almost any dish.
· An assortment of Hi Mountain Seasonings- Lisa carries a large selection of these Wyoming made seasonings so you can find the perfect seasonings for your mother’s favorite ingredients.
· A Queen Bee dish towel- To tie it all off, we included a handmade tea towel because no cook can have too many towels in the kitchen.
If your mother loves to cook, she is going to love one of these baskets. You can customize yours to reflect your mother’s cooking style and if you have questions, the Wyoming Buffalo Company staff members are excellent at providing suggestions.
Relaxing
One of the best gifts you can give to mom on Mother’s Day is the gift of relaxation. Give her everything she needs for a nice relaxing at home spa day. We perused some of Wyoming Buffalo Company’s apothecary items and created the perfect relaxation kit. In the basket we included:
· Huckleberry Floral Sea Salt Soak- This is a great additive to a nice relaxing bath. The scent is amazing, and the healing powers of the sea salt can relieve tired and sore muscles.
· A Western Scented Candle- These locally made candles are incredible and all the scents are inspired by aspects of Wyoming.
· A Chokecherry Goats Milk Soap Bar- The Goat Milk Soap Bars have a wonderful scent and moisturize the skin, leaving it soft and nourished.
· Bee Bar Lotion- This amazing lotion is conveniently in a bar. Easy to pack in a purse and offers the user extremely moisturized skin!
· An assortment of lip treatments- The combination of these lip treatments makes your lips so soft! In the assortment, we included a lip scrub, lip balm and lip gloss, all in great flavors. Perfect for mom on Mother’s Day.
We hope these fabulous baskets provided you with inspiration to create your own. Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers out there!
