What I received for Mother's Day this year:

Pillsbury Fast & Healthy Cookbook: Delicious family meals in 30 minutes or less by Pillsbury
Busy People's Super Simple 30-Minute Menus: 137 Complete Meals Timed for Success by Dawn Hall
This one not only provides complete meals in 30 minutes or less, it also tells what to do at each minute in that time. For instance, if rice is called for in the recipe, it will tell you at what time to start it.
I plan to begin using this one with my children. What an excellent way for them to learn how to prepare a complete meal in 30 minutes or less with each dish being ready at the same time!

That sounds like wonderful Mother's Day gift, how thoughtful! :)
You know I've always liked Dr. Laura! Even though she can be a little brash sometimes, she really tells the truth.....glad you had a good mother's day and I'll be checking out the fast, healthy meals!
Wow! All 3 sounds great, and that last one sounds like just the thing for budding cooks!
You were spoiled, girl :)
Always love cookbooks AND DR L!
Great gifts! Kids love to get in there and help cook. Sound like a great book to help with kids getting started in that. It even sounds like a good one to send my girl.
What great choices. I'm Dr. Laura will be a huge encourager as you read her book. I love her very practical way of looking at things and her no-nonsense approach.
The 30 minute recipes sound great. Let us know how they work out.
Have a blessed weekend.
