Not only is it a brand new week, it's also a brand new month. It's when seasons change that we begin questioning our fate. We look to horoscopes for answers to burning questions like, "Will I get rich?" or "Will I fall in love?" Unfortunately, you won't find too much reassurance here, because starting April 30, this will be the worst week for these zodiac signs: Libra, Scorpio, and Pisces. If you made the list, then you might not find yourself relishing the springtime joy anywhere near as much as your peers.
In springtime vegetable gardens burst into bloom. Delicate vegetables like asparagus, zucchini flowers, and spring peas are classic spring fare. Many more fruits also start to come into season, most notably strawberries, which you can enjoy in anything from tarts to gelato. Spring marks the end of heavy root dishes and the start of lighter meals. In season you will find fava beans, asparagus, artichokes beans, lemons, zucchini flowers, leeks, beets, strawberries and cherries.
When you talk about Italy, it is hard not to think about wine. And in the springtime, vineyards are a hive of activity. For this is the time of year on which a vineyards success is dependent. Pruning or shoot-thinning takes place at the hands of skilled workers, shaping the vines and fixing any errors. Also taking place is topping or hedging when longer shoots are cut back so that the vines are uniform. This is beneficial to vine growth and to the grape harvest. Winemakers love spring. It is the moment of regeneration when the new vintage begins to express itself with the thrill of harvest in the making. 2ff7e9595c
