April is one of my very favorite months, largely due to the rain showers it bestows upon us. Rainy days are full of romance, perfect for cozying up to a good book, a cup of tea, that favorite black and white classic film, and that special someone! And what is better than a rainy night for a cocktail and a candlelit dinner? Husband and I were married in April, so as I count down the days until our anniversary I spend the whole month thinking of weddings (which you might notice right here on the blog in the coming weeks!), fussing over every little detail of our celebration, and baking a smaller scale replica of our wedding cake. Of course, who can forget that this month will also treat us to the rare pleasure of a royal wedding! I for one am unapologetically giddy about it, anyone else? I hope you are all able to embrace and fully enjoy the coming weeks. May the rains wash away the winter dirt from our surroundings and our spirits, and leave us fresh and ready for May flowers!
