This issue is oozing of spring. Yes, we are starting to feel the itch for it. March is here and fingers crossed, hopefully we will see spring arrive this month in Manitoba. Hence, in hope, we've packed this month's mood full teasers of spring such as crunchy salads, light and airy interior design projects, festive and springy DIY projects and more. Do you have the itch as well? Read on for a healthy dose of medicine.

February is here and we don't know about you but to us it feels like January just flew by in an instant. Now, days are ever so slightly longer and it's no longer dark when heading home after work. The light slowly returning is a small everyday delight that we cherish. Speaking of light, A-N-D Light are celebrating 10 years in the making and we bet that you can experience the most glorious sunrises and sunsets on the property featured this month. While still being in the midst of winter, it's only appropriate to indulge in nurturing and uplifting "sunny" foods. As always, you find lots beauty, design, and inspiration below. Happy February.

We're bringing you all the joy this December - the month of festivities! Stunning cabins made for a winter wonderland, treats bursting with seasonal flavours, a couple of crafts that will put you in the Holiday spirit, and more! December is a month of delight, in which we like to focus or time on spending it with our loved ones, both friends and family. It's a time to be merry, to enjoy those small but special moments. We wish you a lovely December and a Happy Holiday!

Welcome to November, daylight savings, and cravings of all things soothing for the soul. In this edition of Monthly Mood we're featuring a lovely 1960's Modern home  in the English country side, comforting, melting in your mouth slow braised pork shanks, and a bedspread project that could turn into a fantastic gift this Holiday season. We highly recommend checking out Glenn Arvor's instagram account for floral eye candy, which can be found through the article we've linked to below. Here's to a (fingers crossed) mild November, and we hope you enjoy our inspiration for you this month.

Welcome to 2024 and our first mood of the year! A new year always feels like an opportunity for new beginnings and to start fresh. The recipe and beverage for this month reflects that by being fresh, simple and boosting our immune system. We are also having a look at the interior trends for 2024, but will most likely create a separate journal entry were we deep dive a bit further soon. Keep your eye's peeled! We are excited to feature the Bedford Quarry house as our architectural feature this month. A stunning property, designed by Steven Harris, nestled on a cliff in an abandoned quarry where they used to mine for rose-quartz amongst other stones, just an hour outside of New York City.

Over-all, this month we are focusing on creativity and relaxation - a gentle way to ease into the new year. So, without further ado. Happy New Year and welcome to 2024.
