Setting the Mood: Spring Forward

When I strolled the streets of my neighborhood this past weekend, I couldn’t help but stifle back a giggle at all of the overzealous restaurant patrons who took full advantage of the thermometer reaching right above 50 degrees and decided to celebrate by gorging themselves on pancakes and mimosas al fresco. Now, I get it. We are all beyond antsy for spring to arrive, but perhaps rather than risk a relapse of the flu (like me), we can get ourselves into the spring spirit by decking ourselves out in spring blooms. Let’s consider it our own little version of an April showers rain dance. Because we all know that after April, May brings all the flowers.
