This is B.D. Schwarz rappin' at ya on a Friday morning.

Not much in the way of news this rainy morning I'm afraid. But don't fear! I have a trivia question. Something that seems to have fallen out of favor in our blogosphere but I'm determined to bring it back.

I think perhaps in the past the problem has been that there is no good prize for being the first to answer my deliciously difficult brain busters. A mere mention on the blog isn't enough motivation to drop me an e-mail I guess. As such, I have an actual, tangible prize for today's trivia game. But, it will remain a secret until I have a winner.

On to the question...

May 14 is Mother's Day which was originally conceived by social activist Julia Ward Howe during the Civil War (or as it is called down in the South, the War Between the States) with a call to unite women against war. She wrote the Mother's Day proclamation. The day now simply celebrates motherhood and thanking mothers. Mothers often receive gifts on this day.

What company makes the most money on Mother's Day?

NOTE: Today's question comes courtesy of Kerry Moriarty. Thanks Kerry!
