If you are looking for something less expensive but just as special for the moms in your life, here are a few fun ideas:
Watch a movie or show with your mom; yummy snacks are a bonus.
Create a custom slideshow/video of photos on your phone and watch it together.
Take care of the chores she dislikes (Do the dishes, laundry, mopping, dusting. A little time and effort goes a long way and doesn't cost a penny).
Help her with a project (yard work or deep clean part of the house)
Pick her a wildflower bouquet.
Go on a family hike or drive.
Create an appreciation jar. Fill a Mason jar with pieces or paper that tell mom why she is special.
No matter how you choose to celebrate the special moms/nurturers in your life, make sure to tell them how much you appreciate all that they do for you. Kind words go a long way for hardworking moms.

This New ‘Superman' Spot Tells Us the Movie's Gonna Cut to the Chase About Clark and Lois
There might finally be an answer about whether or not Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) knows if Clark Kent (David Corenswet) is really the caped superhero in red trunks, and it's slipped into a quick teaser DC Studios just unleashed for Superman. While previous iterations of Superman's love interest may have fallen for the glasses trick, the idea that being bespectacled could hide the Man of Steel's true identity has always been a ridiculous notion. Director James Gunn has seemingly side-stepped that in his upcoming DC Studios film Superman. In the clip below Lane cuts to the chase saying, 'Eventually people are going to find out that you're Superman.' We love to see the Daily Planet's star reporter's investigatory prowess getting down to business when it comes to Metropolis' caped hero being her boyfriend. The real power's in the glasses. 👓 💪 #Superman – only in theaters July 11. Get tickets now: — Superman (@Superman) June 13, 2025 In earlier trailers you kind of get the impression that she knows but this one confirms it. Now, what's yet to be seen is just when it's figured out—or if she's the only one not falling for the flimsy disguise. Kent responds to her question, 'Yeah, but the glasses,' with a certain confidence that's more 'Kal-El, god among us' than 'farm boy turned big city journalist.' Clearly, Lex Luthor is on his trail too as he attempts to dehumanize the hero as an alien threat, specifically targeting his identity as a man—glasses or not. It remains to be seen if Clark Kent being outed as Superman is going to just be treated as a commonplace thing for this universe, a place where he's far from the only superhero. Superman hits theaters July 11.

Horror Thriller ‘The Woman In The Yard' Gets Peacock Streaming Date
Okwui Okpokwasili in "The Woman in the Yard." Universal Studios The Woman in the Yard — a horror thriller starring Danielle Deadwyler — is coming soon to Peacock. Rated PG-13, The Woman in The Yard opened in theaters on March 28 and arrived on digital streaming via premium video on demand on April 15. The official summary for The Woman in the Yard reads, 'A lone, spectral woman shrouded entirely in black appears on a family's front lawn without explanation and warns them, 'Today's the day.' Where did she come from? What does she want? When will she leave? Only The Woman in the Yard knows.' Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (Carry-On), The Woman in the Yard also stars Russell Hornsby, Estella Kahiha, Peyton Jackson and Okwui Okpokwasili as film's 'Woman in the Yard.' Woman in the Yard will make its streaming video on demand debut on Peacock TV on Friday, June 27, according to streaming tracker When to Stream. You must be a Peacock subscriber in order to watch The Woman in the Yard on the NBC Universal platform. For viewers who don't subscribe to Peacock, the platform offers an ad-based package for $7.99 per month or $79 per year and an ad-free package for $13.99 per month or $139.99 per year. Following its March 28 release on the big screen, The Woman in the Yard grossed $22.4 million in North American theaters and just over $900,000 internationally for a worldwide box office tally of $23.3 million. The Woman in the Yard had a $12 million budget before prints and advertising costs, according to The Numbers. The film didn't play well with Rotten Tomatoes critics, who collectively gave the film a 40% 'rotten' rating based on 70 reviews. The RT Critics Consensus for the film reads, 'The Woman in the Yard has plenty of spooky promise in its premise and a committed performance from Danielle Deadwyler, but the story's heavy-handed metaphor leaves little room for scares or surprise.' Audiences received the film a bit better on RT, as The Woman in the Yard received a 47% 'rotten' score on RT's Popcornmeter based on 1,000-plus verified user ratings. The RT audience summary reads, 'With striking imagery, The Woman in the Yard honorably tackles mental health issues but withers in delivering the horror it purports.' Produced by Jason Blum's horror film-based Blumhouse Productions, The Woman in the Yard arrives on Peacock on June 27.

Today's ‘Wordle' #1456 Hints, Clues And Answer For Saturday, June 14th
How to solve today's Wordle. SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images Looking for Friday's Wordle hints, clues and answer? You can find them here: Hooray and huzzah! It's Saturday! The day of Saturn—the one day of the week that celebrates a Roman god instead of Norse/Germanic gods. The rain of early June has departed and now we're in the mid-80s, which is a lot hotter when you're at 7,500 feet above the sea. The sun is brutal. I have to remember to wear sunscreen or I crisp right up. That won't be an issue while we solve today's Wordle, of course. The Hint: Spooky. The Clue: This Wordle has far more consonants than vowels. Okay, spoilers below! The answer is coming! . . . Today's Wordle Screenshot: Erik Kain Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here. BLOAT was a great starting word, leaving me with just 18 remaining words and two green boxes. I couldn't think of a perfect word with all new letters, so I went with four new letters in an attempt to rule out the one remaining vowel I thought might be a problem. SHUNT shaved off every possible solution but one: GHOST for the win! Today's Wordle Bot Screenshot: Erik Kain Sadly, the Bot and I tied today so we get 0 points for that. We each get 1 point for guessing in three. Our June totals inch up while the gap remains the same: Erik: 11 points Wordle Bot: 8 points The word ghost comes from Old English gāst, meaning "spirit" or "soul." It is related to Old High German geist (spirit) and is likely from a Proto-Germanic root gaistaz. The deeper origin is uncertain, but it may be linked to the idea of breath or life force.
