Sunday is Mother’s Day. Celebrated in about 60 countries including Australia, Canada, Denmark, Italy, New Zealand, Turkey, and the USA.
The modern holiday of Mother’s Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother at a church in Grafton, West Virginia.
More North Americans normally eat out on Mothers Day more than any other special occasion.
