April Showers Bring May Flowers

April Showers Bring May Flowers as the old saying goes. But, April showers can also bring mold into your home. With all the impending rain, the possibility of mold formation also increases. Furthermore, according to the CDC, molds grow best in warm, damp and humid conditions. Basically, the climate during this time of year is the perfect breeding ground for mold and its spores. Spores are pretty resilient and can survive numerous environmental conditions. But, do not fret, however, because there are simple and effective ways to remove it.

The important thing to note is that if you do find that your home contains mold, you should not try to clean it out yourself. Experts say that exposure to molds can cause nasal stuffiness, eye irritation, wheezing or skin irritation. Certain types of mold, i.e. black mold, are especially toxic, therefore, only a professional should head the remediation process.

March Time to Spring Forward

March time to Spring Forward! The Spring Equinox is finally upon us, and it’s also time to remodel! The official first day of spring 2017 is March 20th.  Warmer weather is on its way, which most look forward to after a long, brutally cold winter.  There are some of us that associate spring time with spring cleaning, and opening up the windows in your home for the smell of the invigorating spring air.  This year, Easter will be on Sunday, April 16, 2017.  So get ready for the Easter Bunny to arrive, dyed eggs, and chocolate candies galore! 

Students will be celebrating Spring Break this month as well.  Many people will be attending spring festivals in their hometowns. Gardening is also a big hit in the Spring Time.  Flowers and trees are in full bloom, so it is the best season for gardening in most gardeners’ opinion.  Daylight Savings Time will also occur in March.  This year it will happen on Sunday, March 10, 2017, so don’t forget to set your clocks forward one hour.

For most Floridians, warm weather is not something that is sought after mostly because it’s warm nearly year-round.  But for those that reside in the northern states, often get excited about the anticipation of spring.  Spring washes away the snow, as the sun starts to shine brightly, bringing joy to those that endured a rough, dark winter.  The outdoor activities become much more enjoyable, and people tend to spend more time outside in the spring season.  The smell of fresh cut grass will be in the air as homeowners tend to their yards.  Children will finally be able to ride their bikes, play on playgrounds, and partake in pool or beach time with family and friends.

Easter is a holiday when families normally come together as one.  We visit with our loved ones, while eating great food, and hiding Easter eggs for the kids to hunt down.  There are a few traditions associated with Easter that you may have never heard of before.    The Easter Bunny tradition actually made its way over from Europe in the 18th century.  In Europe, they were known to refer to the Easter Bunny as “The Easter Hare”.  

The most common Easter traditions are making baskets, coloring/dying eggs,  egg hunts, and getting all dolled up in bonnets and fancy outfits. The traditional act of painting eggs is called “Pysanka”.  This originated in the Ukraine, and the eggs are painted with beeswax instead of dye.  In 2011, the tallest chocolate Easter egg was constructed in Italy.  It was taller than a giraffe and heavier than an elephant.  Americans consume over 16 million jelly beans on Easter and buy more than 700 million marshmallow “Peeps” during the Easter holiday. On Easter, the White House hosts an Easter Egg Roll on the front lawn.  This tradition was started by President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1878.

Spring is often associated with the best time to plant a flower or vegetable garden.  Even if your thumb isn’t so green, it is all about trial and error with gardening, and anybody can do it.  All it takes is dedication and a little TLC.  Here are a few tips that everyone should know if you are planning on starting or repairing a garden this spring:  First thing you should do is prepare the soil.  You want to till the garden area 8 to 12 inches beneath the soil while removing any rocks and any other debris.  Make sure not to till when the soil is too wet, you may hinder the growth of plants and flowers.  Make sure to pluck out all of the weeds that have overtaken the soil. 

Next, you will want to fertilize.  Professional gardener’s and landscapers say it is suitable to use coffee grounds for your garden.  It is the more “green” way to fertilize and can be slightly less expensive than store-bought fertilizers.  Coffee grounds are filled with nitrogen (a mineral that aids in vegetable and plant growth).  Another tip is adding your cooking water to your plants.  Cooled cooking water adds nutrients and minerals to your plants that are left behind after cooking some of your favorite pasta and potatoes.  Chamomile tea is a great way to avoid your plants getting infected with bacteria and/or fungus.  Many gardening experts believe that planting your veggies, fruits, plants, and flowers at night will help your garden to grow faster. Planting at night also maximizes your water usage.

March Time to Spring Forward

Take this time of year to enjoy all that spring has to offer.  Plant a garden.  Go on a bike ride.  Sign up for the county softball league.  Go to the springs and rent a kayak.  Have a picnic with someone special.  Visit a farm to see the animals.  Pick strawberries.  Listen to the rain.  Feel the sun on your face.  Decorate your home with fresh flowers.  Explore.  Celebrate and enjoy Easter with family and friends.  Spring time has so much to offer, and the weather is marvelous!
