Today is the first day of spring, and despite the fact that Michigan did not get the memo spring is still my favorite season. From the fresh fruit and blooming flowers to the gorgeous sunsets and warmer weather.  I decided that I would share my ingredients for an ideal spring. Here is my recipe for a Splendid Spring…
a handful of peonies, tulips and daffodils
1 cup of updos
½ cup of walks in the evening
¼ cup lash
3 tablespoons sundresses
1 teaspoon scalloped shorts
a pound of  fresh fruits from the farmers market
A pinch of pastels
3 sticks lipgloss
a dash of floppy hats
a splash of pedicures

Instructions: Mix all ingredients together over the next three months and enjoy!
What makes up your spring?
