Hello<br />

MAY!<br />

In <strong>May</strong> we celebrate Mom! It’s very easy to make<br />

Mom feel special in Delray. With so many wonderful<br />

restaurants to choose from, satisfying any food or<br />

craving she may have will be easy. There are also<br />

amazing salons and spas to pamper her. Inside this issue<br />

we have included special recipes that are sure to make<br />

Mom feel loved. Check out Delray Under $50, and our<br />

Mother’s Day pages for some suggestions on spoiling Mom!<br />

This month we dine at Il Contadino, sampling traditional<br />

Italian recipes and enjoying every last bite! Chef Michel<br />

only uses the freshest ingredients and will customize any<br />

entrée to your liking. A hidden gem in Pineapple Grove<br />

with a wine list that will impress any Sommelier. Every dish<br />

is a work of art - a feast for your eyes and your tummy!<br />

Lieutenant Gary Ferreri from the Delray Beach Police<br />

Department is our City Person this month. Feeling safe<br />

at night is easy knowing that Lt. Ferreri is in charge as<br />

the Night Time Watch Commander working the difficult<br />

overnight hours from 5pm to 5am! But incredibly so, even<br />

while working those hours, Lt. Ferreri still finds time to<br />

be a mentor, bring ice cream trucks to neighborhoods, and<br />

even dress up as Santa to bring joy to our community.<br />

We end this month honoring our fallen Heroes.<br />

Monday, <strong>May</strong> 30th is Memorial Day. Take a moment out<br />

of celebrations, barbecues, and beach time to remember<br />

the men and women that made the ultimate sacrifice. And<br />

let’s also take a moment and pray for the brave people of<br />

Ukraine, fighting fiercely every day to stay alive. Let us<br />

never take for granted our freedom that many willingly<br />

protected till their last breath.<br />

Love, Yvette<br />

Our flag does<br />

not fly because<br />

of the wind<br />

moving it. It flies<br />

with the last<br />

breath of each<br />

soldier who died<br />

protecting it.<br />
