Happy April Fool’s Day!
Don’t worry, I am not at all into pulling pranks on people so you are safe with me. 🙂 But can you believe it’s already April? As always, it seems like the days are flying by so quick. It feels like spring only started yesterday. But I am not going to complain because warmer temps are finally here. Or so I thought because as per the weather forecast, we are going to have snow again later this week. Umm, really? So although I’m seeing blooms everywhere, apparently, Mr. ‘Ol Man Winter is still hiding somewhere and not ready to leave yet.
Anyway, weather can be unpredictable and it could still change. So I’m not going to worry about it. I guess some, or many or maybe all of you are excited about April. I think I am too. But before I get excited some more, let’s talk about March first and here’s the recap of the many musings here on our dear blog.
FAMILY
Don’t we all just love when spring finally sprung? You do know that it could mean enjoying the outdoors more. The flower lover in me is always delighted when I see flowers everywhere like the gorgeous white blooms from those Bradford Pear trees. Can’t help but gush about ’em on Spring Arrives and My Flowers Thrive!
Spring soccer also started and we moved to a new soccer field for our practices – a beautiful place that has lots of great views to offer. Not to mention, they have a putting area so the hubs took the opportunity to putt one day.
March is also for March Madness which the husband is a huge fan of. And this year he’s especially happy since his North Carolina Tar Heels made it to the Final Four. He’s been following the tournament since he was a teenager. And I think the same goes with being a fan of Stephen King. Got him new Stephen King books on Christmas and as always, he was on cloud 9.
Easter Sunday was spent with family as usual, and was filled with good food, good conversation and fun.
FOOD
All the recipes that I shared this month were all healthy food. Like I said previously, my goal is to serve healthy meals for my family, more so after what happened to the hubs in January. I shared Avocado and Tomato Salad, Sauteed Salmon with Mushrooms and Broccoli Fritters. The good thing about these recipes was, they are all easy and quick to prepare. Try them yourself!
TRAVEL
I had this urge of going to the beach in the first week of March that was why I created a list of the Must-See Beaches in North Carolina. I was hoping that we could do it during the Spring Break, but later on I realized that it’s not good to let the hubs travel that far yet. I know he’s feeling great and he’s looking great, but I prefer to delay it for now. Better be safe than sorry, right? Summer is right around the corner anyway. We’ll save our trips for then.
The husband and I did a little trip to the thrift store though in search of a coffee table. We didn’t find one that we liked and that suited our budget, but we did have a blast exploring the huge store full of antique stuff. Like I said in that post, I felt like Joanna Gaines while checking those antique pieces one by one. 🙂
How was your March?
Broccoli fritters sound amazing. I’ve made lots of different kinds of fruity fritters, but I’ve never made any of the veggie variety.
You should, Stacie. They’re really good! 🙂
What a great month! My March was rough, but I’m glad to see yours was so good!
Thank you, Angie. Here’s hoping your April would be a lot better compared to March. 🙂
Great recap! I would love to head to North Carolina to hit up the beaches. There are some gorgeous places to stay there.
Thank you! 🙂
What a fun family and food March recap you have! Thanks for sharing! It’s always nice to summarize what you’ve done the previous month because it gives you an idea of the adventures you partook!
Thank you, Cara! 🙂
March was an eventful month for all of us. It’s when we all welcomed Spring with open arms! Thanks for all the healthy recipes. I can’t wait to see more this April!
Thank you, Elizabeth! 🙂
What a great roundup. It looks like you had a good March. I hope your hubs continue to get better.
Thank you! I hope so too. 🙂
I’m in WI and while they also claim it is Spring here, it does not at all feel like it. We can often see our breath still! I’m not much into reading, but Stephen King is one of my favorite authors.
March seemed to fly by so quickly. It sounds like you guys had a super busy month. I saw snowstorms coming down from Canada, hopefully, it won’t make it your way. It was chilly here this week compared to normal and we have had some icky storms with damaging hail.
Sounds you had a good month, I love your healthy food and I want to cook this for my family.
What a great recap and sounds like you had an awesome month. I love your travel post
The food looks like very delicious and really healthy. So happy for you, you look like you had a very nice month
Great recap! March sounds like it was a great and productive month! I can’t believe it’s already April. It seems to have really creeped on in there. Hoping the weather around here starts to reflect the date soon!
I can’t believe we’re 4 months into the year already. I swear it just started! It looks like you had a fantastic March!
The brocoli fritters sounds amazing, can’t wait to try them! Love your post too!
Great recap! I’m so glad that you had fun last month of March. Those food are looks so delicious and tasty.
will try the sauteed salmon with mushroom! i love the salmon and mushroom! wanted to cook more healthier foods for my family too!
I can’t wait to plant my flowers.
You had such a great March! I hope April will be amazing for you.
HI,
I sure like the recipe, especially the broccoli fritters. We love the cauliflour fritters so the broccoli should be awesome. Enjoy spring so looking forward to the warm weather.
What a busy March for you and your family. Great fun events that happened. Thanks for sharing your March story.
I think you have had a wonderful March month, mine has been too busy as well with few family events around. Your food recipes are quiet healthy ones & I would love to try all of them during my weekends.
What a fun March for you! I would love to check out one of those Beaches in SC.
