Style Magazine - April 2022
As part of our “spring forward” lineup (and I’ve got to apologize here for all the very cheesy spring puns) we’ve got budding stars (“5 Top Teens,” page 18), sports to bring a spring in your step (“Spring Forth,” page 32), some lively seasonal performances (“In the Spotlight,” page 24), and even an extra boost of flower power (Editor’s Picks, page 47). Not to mention, all the yummy eats—including some scrumptious Easter brunch recipes (“Easter Feast,” page 86). To top it off, after two years of uncertainty, we’ve finally brought back our Calendar of Events (page 30) and couldn’t be more thrilled that there’s so much happening in our neighborhoods. However you spend this season, make sure to celebrate it. Celebrate new life, new opportunities, and even new challenges. It’s good to be alive and let’s not forget it. Last year, I celebrated April with an indoor spring-themed photoshoot for my daughter, Aria. This year, I’m going to try doing the same thing—but outdoors. My daughter and I are also going to be soaking up the sunshine, picking wildflowers, and listening to birds sing. My co-editor, Emily, is sure to be bonding outdoors with her two beautiful dogs, Goldie and Turtle. Here’s to a new season and new adventures of every kind. Speaking of “new” our sorely missed editor in chief, Megan, welcomed sweet baby girl Phoebe Rose in February. From what we know, they’re thoroughly enjoying the warm weather and each other. Happy spring, happy Easter, and happy days to you all! —Tara Mendanha tara@stylemg.com
