Looking for the perfect Mother’s Day gift? “Busy, single mother” Michelle Obama’s got you covered.

At a book signing this morning, FLOTUS encouraged shoppers to purchase her first book, “American Grown: The Story of the White House Kitchen Garden and Gardens Across America,” for their moms:

“Buy away. It’s Mother’s Day. It’s coming up. I would say that I was going to give this as a gift to my mother, but she already has, like, 10 copies. But I might buy her another one just for the heck of it. But it’s a great gift, and hopefully you share it with your family and friends,” she told the crowd.

Because nothin’ says lovin’ like a book about a stunt vegetable garden.

Rather get a stupid Pajama-gram or one of those idiotic teddy bears! Michelle Obama: Buy my book for Mother’s Day – thehill.com/capital-living…
