Goodbye April! Hello May!
I know, right? Time seems to fly by and here I am again for my monthly recap of what transpired here on the blog the previous month. But I am more than excited that May is already here because it only means one thing: we are a month closer to June. And why am I excited for June you may ask? Well…I’m sorry but I can’t divulge yet. You’ll find out soon. Please bear with me, okay? đŸ˜‰
So before I get carried away, let’s head on to the recap and find out what you may have missed that might interest you.
FAMILY
Spring was in full swing in April and, with that, the hubs talked about what keeps him busy and what he looks forward to each spring in his posts, The Rites of Spring and A Moment of Redemption.
Our son’s spring break was in the second week of spring this year ( it usually falls at the end of March) and I shared some ideas for spring break family fun.
FOOD
I shared two recipes last month – one of my favorite Filipino dishes, Adobong Talong or Eggplant Adobo, and the delicious vegetarian dish, Sweet Corn and Spring Vegetable Pasta. I also rounded up delicious treats and recipes for Easter and Cinco de Mayo.
The hubs and I were able to have lunch dates and a movie date and, of course, I had to share the food because it was so good! đŸ˜‰
TRAVEL
We don’t travel or go on vacation during spring break, but we make sure to enjoy the break as much as we can. We checked out the Antique Car Museum here in the city and the Homespun Museum right next door to it. It was a fascinating trip to the past.
And that’s it!
How was your April? Hope it was fabulous!

Great recap. You know, I really enjoy your recaps every month. You always have great reads, and it’s very helpful to find any that I might have missed.
This is a great recap for April. I am looking forward to getting outside more this month. I have been itching to get out and set up my garden.
I seriously can not believe that April has come and gone so quickly! I love your recap!
I am glad you and your husband made time for dates. I think that is a great thing. I need to carve out time for that!
The sweet corn and spring vegetable pasta looks awesome!
I’m a bit shocked that April is over, but it was a nice month overall.

I love the idea of a monthly recap what a great post, it sounds like you had a nice April, I’m going to have to go back and check some of your posts.
Your visit to the antique car museum sounds like a great road trip. I always like to check out unique and classic automobiles. If I had a bigger garage probably would own a few of my own as well.
April is pretty much the same every year for us. A couple of birthdays and my wedding anniversary. So we had some fun and wished the weather was better as usual.
Sounds like a great month. I love the recipes you have shown. They do look really good!
A recap post is such a cool idea! I love all your food posts! They all look delicious.
April was a busy month for my family. I had a lot of posts to write, my eldest had a few basketball tournyes to go to, and my other half has been tackling jobs around our home. The weather has made it difficult for us to enjoy much of the changes happening around here. Hopefully, May will bring sunnier days with it!
April flew by so quickly. You guys had a busy month too. April was a crazy month for me, I had numerous dr apts and physical therapy sessions.
I think it’s fun how u recap your month. O really should stop and take a moment to reflect on the past month and them plan the next. I bet it does great for mental health.
Looks like April was pretty great for you! I seriously can’t believe that it is May already! This year is flying by!
LOve your creeping phlox. I left mine behind our old house and wish that I could have got some and transfer here coz I can’t find them in the store.

April was pretty sucky for me so I am very happy it’s over. I love how you do these recaps! What a great idea.
April was hit or miss, had a kid break and arm and the weather didn’t cooperate on the outdoor stuff, but did get the mud room almost redone.
