LOL - the suggested links just above my post and below yours have ideas for Mother's Day gifts (at the time of this post). :P
Depends on what she likes, her health, and if you're delivering it yourself or boxing it up to be shipped.
Chocolates suck to ship, since they typically undergo vast changes in temperatures during delivery unless.
Flowers are always nice -- I always go to flowerbud.com for all of my floral needs (we have no family w/in a thousand miles)...but this is a food blog so I guess we stick with food.
A 'gourmet' food basket would be nice too, if she's into that...s'pose you can tailor it to what she likes. If she's into soups, fresh veggies, fruits, wine, etc. in a picnic basket, whatever.
There are always gift cards, if you can't find anything but know which store(s) she frequents...heck maybe even a gas card.

I am not going to give food to my mom this year. So, my answers are not food related but at least suggestions:
Gift Certificate to her fave salon to get her hair done however she wants
Plants
Gift Certificate to a restaurant
Gift Card to a kitchen gadget website, if she has access to the internet. I'm a fan of cooking.com

I got my mom a subscription to Saveur Magazine....purchased it online.
Then picked up a card, a copy of the May Issue & some Black Eyed Peas (which was needed for one of the recipes in the magazine).
I wrote in the card that there was something to read, something to cook with, and a year of future adventures in the kitchen.
It wasn't last minute, but would certainly work.

If your mom likes the theater, you can buy tickets to a show and maybe a certificate to a good restaurant.

Long chatty email, with pictures of you (If you're gonna see her today, maybe take some together pics and get them printed all nice this week for her.)
