Today is the last Friday in April, can you believe it?! Summer is only two months away, so we better soak up all the sweetness of spring while we can. There are so many things I love about spring: the produce (asparagus= my favorite vegetable, remember?), the wildflowers, the unpredictable weather, and the evenings that start feeling warmer and lighter. We spent last weekend at the farmers market and the beach, and plan to get outside as much as we can this weekend as well. I hope you have some spring-y plans this weekend (ex: have a spritz, make pasta with fresh peas and asparagus, or eat strawberries with every meal) and really embrace the season!
