Marvelous in May SPRING IS IN
the air. It`s a season of new
beginnings, longer lighter days and the month we honor our mothers by celebrating Mother’s Day. It feels like only yesterday, my daughter Brooklie said her first word, and shortly after she was starting high school. In the blink of an eye, she’s graduated from college, and is now off to law school. As a daughter and a mother, I know the meaning of unconditional love and in these pages, we have compiled gift ideas and recipes to help make the day special for those we care for. This month I had the pleasure of spending the day of May’s cover photo shoot with two incredible women. The minute I walked in to Cured. On Columbia, I was greeted with a warm welcome, a glass of wine and one of their special charcuterie boards as they told me their incredible success story. Get to meet this amazingly talented couple that are living their authentic lives. Read their full story on page 21. May’s fashion spread showcases spring attire that is trending on the national style scene. On page 12, see what’s hot for the season. And on page 24, our home feature reveals a stunning private paradise on the Tchefuncte that has everything a family could want to make their dreams come true. You have to this renovated and luxury-appointed estate to believe it’s right in the heart of Mandeville. Whether it’s family get-togethers, shopping, dining or festival-going, May is the month to enjoy the gorgeous weather, our ability to gather once again, and all our community has to offer. Cheers to moms and the strong women who’ve shaped our lives and this wonderful place we are fortunate to call home.
