DID YOU KNOW MARCH THROUGH JUNE IS PEAK SEASON FOR PINEAPPLE PICKING? Here are a few tips for picking that perfect pineapple: • Go for the gold! Actually, the more golden yellow the better. Never choose a fully green pineapple— it won’t ripen gracefully. • Pluck a leaf from the crown—if it pulls easily, you’ve got yourself a plucky winner. • Fragrant = fabulous. If you can smell the sweetness, scoop ‘er up!


Or if your eyes are dancing with delight—take one, take all—no one was ever hurt from having a ball.

WELCOME SPRING IN STYLE Roxy’s Tips

S P R I N G E N T E R TA I N I N G T I P S • Spring weather is fickle, go ahead and buy outdoor essentials such as picnic blankets and lanterns so you can be the first al fresco. • Host a themed opening season social like a cocktails + lawn games soiree featuring croquet, badminton, bocce ball, or horseshoe! • Refresh your bar cart with floral elixirs and liqueurs such as the tasty and perfectly packaged line of cordials, presses, and fruit crushes from Belvoir Fruit Farms. • Sprinkle edible flowers in salads, cocktails, and confections to make for a festive spring presentation! Here are a few you can safely eat: carnations, calendulas, pansies, and bachelor’s buttons. • Have favorite and easy seasonal go-to recipes on hand. This Green Green Spring Vegetables dish by Barefoot Contessa is a favorite of ours.

S P R I N G D E C O R AT I N G T I P S • Say goodbye to winter blues by popping in a brightly colored pillow to a sofa or bed. It’s quick and inexpensive! • Switch out heavy, burdensome quilts for light, breezy linens. • Taking advantage of flowers in full bloom makes decorating easy. • Edit. Get rid of unused and old items to give your home a fresh, airy feel. • If you’re looking for a major change, try out a spring color trend by painting a chosen room in mint, lemon meringue, French blue, or nectarine.
