Breakfast in Bed
Remember all the times Mom prepped breakfast before your early-morning game or whipped up a brunch buffet for your birthday sleepover? There’s no way to repay her for years of tasty meals made with love, but a surprise breakfast in bed won’t hurt.
Plan a meal that includes what Mom would want on her special day, whether it’s light and healthy or rich and indulgent. Try not to burn anything—though you know she’ll forgive you if you do—and don’t forget a few fresh flowers on the tray!

Gluten-Free Yogurt Waffles Recipe
Prep Time: 25 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Serving Size: Makes 4 round 8-inch waffles
Ingredients
1 ½ cups Gary’s True Grit™ Gluten-Free Pancake and Waffle Mix
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons coconut sugar
8 ounces plain whole milk yogurt (preferably with a loose consistency)
2 large eggs
¼ cup melted coconut oil (plus more for waffle iron)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Lemon-Lavender Blueberry Syrup Recipe
1 ½ cups frozen wild blueberries
⅓ cup unfiltered honey
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 drop Lavender Vitality essential oil
3 drops Lemon Vitality essential oil
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and coconut sugar. In another bowl, whisk together yogurt, eggs, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth. Stir egg mixture into flour mixture and mix well to combine. Let batter sit 10–15 minutes for the flour to fully hydrate. While waiting, make the syrup.
Combine the blueberries, honey, and lemon juice in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5–10 minutes or until the mixture is syrupy. Set aside to cool slightly; then add Lavender and Lemon Vitality essential oils, stirring well to combine.
Heat waffle iron at medium heat and brush with melted coconut oil. Pour ¼ of the batter onto iron and close. Cook until waffle is golden brown and crisp, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack set on a baking sheet in a low-temperature oven to keep warm; repeat with remaining batter.
Serve immediately topped with the Lemon-Lavender Blueberry Syrup.

Stir in essential oils.
Using an electric hand mixer, whip until firm peaks form, about 10 minutes.
Gently transfer to a seal-able jar or container. Store at room temperature to avoid melting or solidifying.

Three Simple Steps to Fab Feet
Step One: Exfoliate
A sugar scrub will gently slough off old skin cells to reveal your soft and smooth feet. This DIY essential oil-infused scrub smells great and will transform your feet.
Sugar Scrub
¼ cup + 2 T V-6™ Vegetable Oil Complex
5 drops Bergamot
3 drops Lavender
2 drops Sacred Sandalwood
2 drops Wintergreen
¾ cup raw sugar
In a small bowl, mix V-6 oil with essential oils. Add mixture to raw sugar in a larger bowl and combine thoroughly. Store in an airtight jar.
When applying in the bath, you may want to use a pumice stone to speed up the exfoliation process; however, avoid scrubbing your calluses raw or removing them altogether.
HINT: Use about a tablespoon for each foot. Be careful: The scrub can make your shower slippery!
Step Two: Cuticle Care
After a shower or bath, gently push your cuticles back in preparation for a DIY cuticle treatment. You can use a pedicure tool or a towel.
Cuticle Treatment
15-ml V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex
20 drops Tea Tree (Melaleuca Oil)
Fill an empty 15-ml bottle about halfway with V-6. Add 20 drops of Tea Tree oil, and then continue to add more V-6 until the bottle is full. To use, add 1 drop to your cuticles and rub in until absorbed.
HINT: Use an AromaGlide™ Roller Fitment on the top of your 15-ml bottle to make application of this treatment quick and easy.
Step Three: Moisturize
Young Living offers fantastic moisturizers, including Genesis™, Lavender, Sensation™ Hand & Body Lotion, and KidScents® lotions. If you do not have a favorite, purchase a couple of options in your next order and start finding your new favorite.
HINT: Before going to bed, generously massage your favorite Young Living lotion all over your feet and legs, and then put on a pair of moisturizing socks.
Whether you make this DIY pedicure a part of your spring cleaning routine or decide to do it every day, these three simple steps are sure to keep your feet happy and ready for the sunshine!
