With Mother's Day just around the corner, make sure you don't show up to your parents' house this Sunday empty-handed. If your mom gets her geek on, gift her with something suitable for a mother of dragons (or Whovians or Jedi padawans — she did raise you, after all).
We've got some of the geekiest gifts for Star Wars, Star Trek, Game of Thrones, and Doctor Who fanmoms, plus a special trinket for supermom mathletes.

A Feast of Ice and Fire
The official companion cookbook ($20) of A Song of Ice and Fire, the series on which Game of Thrones is based, features a forward by George R.R. Martin, in which he professes his great talent for writing about extravagant meals . . . but not cooking them himself. Mom will have a blast reliving all the books from the series through the meals that brought the stories to life. The book has both medieval and modern versions of each delectable treat.
