Fun Ways To Celebrate The Arrival Of Spring
S
pring is a season of rebirth in more ways than one. Spring is when certain animals emerge from hibernation, while many species lay eggs or give birth this time of year. Flowers and trees also bloom in spring, providing spectacular foliage and awe-inspiring color.
People also may feel like they have a new lease on life as they shake away the doldrums of winter and embrace longer hours of sunlight and warmer temperatures. The arrival of spring is worthy of celebration, and these activities and ideas can be enjoyable ways to spend the first day of spring. • Spend time outdoors. One is never too old for a picnic in a park or a bike ride along the trails. Spending time outdoors is beneficial because it exposes people to sunlight, which is a precursor to the development of vitamin D. Vitamin D affects muscles, joints and tissues. It also can affect mood.
• Plant a tree. Honor the first day of spring, and Earth Day shortly thereafter, by planting trees. Trees provide habitats for wildlife, create shade, reduce air pollution by filtering the air, and produce oxygen. A sapling is a mangeable tree to plant and something children can do as well.
• Enjoy spring crafts. Grab an inexpensive canvas and paint a landscape that is in full bloom. Use quick-set plaster to create stepping stones embedded with mosaic glass pieces for color that can be added to the backyard. • Host a spring potluck. Put fresh spring vegetables and
fruits on display. Options include artichokes, apricots, asparagus, carrots, dandelion greens, and radishes. Put together a pasta primavera, which essentially is a spring pasta dish laden with fresh vegetables. • Decorate with flowers. Bring fresh flowers indoors and put them on display in vases or table centerpieces. Cut stems on a 45-degree angle underwater to help flowers last longer. In addition, choose floral themed curtains and throw pillows to add some spring decor. • Create a water feature. The sound and sights of cascading water can be both relaxing and picturesque. A water feature can be something as simple as a small fountain or more elaborate like a koi pond. Spring is a time of year when people can enjoy seasonal activities that make the most of the warmer weather and blooming landscape.
Events Can Foster A Strong Sense Of Community
E
vents that bring residents of a community together in one place have been on the back burner in recent years. As the world has dealt with the COVID-19 pandemic, communities have scaled back on public events in the hopes of limiting crowds and preventing the spread of the virus. Since 2021, such restrictions have been loosened, especially in spring and summer. The return of spring marks a great time for local leaders to add more events to their community calendars. The following are some fun event ideas that can help communities reconnect in the months to come. • Crafts festival: The digital advertising agency NMPi noted in a report titled “Impact of COVID-19 on Arts & Crafts Retail” that the rise in pandemicrelated self-isolation led to an increased demand for arts-andcrafts. As the world emerges from the pandemic, community leaders can provide residents
an opportunity to showcase their newfound talents by hosting a crafts festival. Invite established professionals to showcase and sell their wares and encourage local hobbyists to do the same. This is a great way to promote local businesses and connect residents with neighbors who love to spend time working on arts and crafts. • Concert series: Concert series are fun and lucrative for local businesses. A 2016
www.longislandmediagroup.com/seasons-magazine
analysis of a popular local concert series in northern New York State determined that a concert series sponsored by the Disabled Persons Action Organization allowed more than $1.6 million to flow through local economies. That’s welcome news for local businesses that have been hit hard by the pandemic, and it’s also welcome news for leaders who want to rebuild a sense of community in their
EDITION ELEVEN
towns and cities. Families and local residents can enjoy live music and take pride knowing that each ice cream cone, hot dog or cold beverage they buy at a concert is helping local businesses rebound from a tough stretch. • Farmers market: Another way to promote local businesses and public health is to host weekly farmers markets. Buying locally grown foods reduces food miles, a term that refers to the distance food travels before it reaches grocery stores. Reduced food miles means less fuel consumption and reduced air pollution, both of which benefit the environment and human health, but farmers markets do more than that, as they provide access to healthy foods to individuals who might otherwise be unable to find fresh fruits and vegetables. Farmers markets support local farmers and growers, reassuring consumers that their money is going back into their own communities.

Landscaping Tips For Instant Curb Appeal
O
ne of the best ways to achieve instant curb appeal, according to the experts, is to effectively layer shrubs, plants and flowers in your front yard. Doing so can create a cohesive visual experience that naturally guides visitors to the front door. Landscape designer Doug Scott describes plant layering in art terms: “Just like in a painting, you need to have a background, a middle ground and a foreground. Each layer serves a purpose, and there’s no more important place for them to be on full display than your home’s entrance. To help homeowners understand the purpose of plant layering and identify the best types of plants for each layer, Scott has joined forces with Exmark, a leading manufacturer of commercial mowers and equipment for landscape professionals and serious DIY-ers. Here they break it down for you: 1. Background: The background layer should consist
of taller evergreen shrubs to ensure that no matter what’s in front of them, you and your visitors will always have something green to look at. This layer provides a

cohesive backdrop and a bit of living color in every season. 2. Middle Ground: Here’s where to step it down a notch in height and add interesting shapes, colors or stripes that provide contrast against the darker green of the background layer. Herbaceous perennials, like lavender, are a good choice for this purpose. 3. Foreground: Finally, the foreground layer should help transition the planting beds to your lawn space or sidewalk, and should therefore be lower than the back two layers. It’s also where you can keep things fresh and get your hands dirty throughout the year by changing out annuals with the seasons. Or, if you want a lower-maintenance entrance, you can choose smaller perennials, evergreens or creeping ground covers. Use the foreground layer as an opportunity to add pops of color at ground level and draw attention to your home’s entrance. Scott lays out a few other important tips to keep in mind: • Choose plants consistent with your home’s style. For instance, if you have a craftsman home, you should probably skip tropical plants. Or, if your home is more minimalist, avoid an overabundance of different plants. • Don’t obstruct views of your
EDITION ELEVEN
front door from the street with plants. Likewise, visitors shouldn’t have to maneuver around plants as they make their way down the sidewalk. Neither is convenient or welcoming, so you’ll either need to keep pruning plants to size, or choose plants that won’t overgrow their space without a ton of pruning. • To make your entrance “the star” it should be, the plant material in the rest of your front yard shouldn’t be distracting. Rather let it frame the intended view. Scott offers more plant layering tips in “Making an Entrance,” a recent episode of “Done-In-AWeekend Projects,” an original series from Exmark. To watch the video, visit Backyard Life, which is part of a unique multimedia destination with a focus on helping homeowners make the most of outdoor spaces. There you can also download additional tips and view other Exmark Original Series videos, including “Dream Yards,” “Living Rural,” “Prime Cuts” and “Done In a Weekend – Extreme Projects.” Through effective plant layering, you can boost curb appeal and give your home the grand entrance it deserves.

Spring Cleaning: Is Your 'Junk' Worth A Fortune?
I
f your family is like most, you have “junk” in your basement, garage or attic, such as sports cards, memorabilia and toys. Before you toss them out during spring cleaning, consider that the prices of sports cards, games and other ephemera are skyrocketing. How can you determine if your stuff is valuable and, if it is, how can you sell it? A widely accepted rule for sports cards, memorabilia and toys is that older items are worth more. However, these days even more recent items are also commanding high prices. “Vintage sports cards from the early periods of a sport are almost always highly collectible, especially of Hall of Famers,” says Al Crisafulli, Auction Director at Love of the Game Auctions, an internet sports and memorabilia auction that helps families sell collectibles. “But don’t assume sports cards or other memorabilia have to be old to be valuable. Modern cards of such stars as Tom Brady, Mike Trout, LeBron James,

Michael Jordan, Derek Jeter and others can sell for lots of money.“ He is offering tips to help determine if your belongings are valuable:
Spring Cleaning
pring cleaning is a ritual that many people participate in as the last vestiges of winter disappear. Spring cleaning is a time to open windows, deep clean rooms and closets and take down and launder window treatments and linens. Others use spring cleaning as a time to sort and donate or discard clutter that might have accumulated over the winter. Even though spring cleaning seems like a modern invention, the act of spring cleaning is believed to have originated centuries ago. Some say that the ancient Chinese cleaned in preparation for their New Year as they hoped to wipe away any bad luck and misfortune from the previous year. Similarly, the ancient Hebrew practice of thoroughly cleansing a home before the springtime feast of Passover may have evolved into the spring cleaning we know today. Another possible connection is the tradition of "shaking the house clean" in Iran. Iranians celebrate Now Rouz (Persian New Year) with many different rituals, one of which involves buying new clothes and cleaning every corner of the family home to signify renewal.
www.longislandmediagroup.com/seasons-magazine
Older Sports Cards
Cards from the 1960s and earlier are collectible, and those from before the 1940s can be extremely valuable. Big-name Hall of Famers like Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Lou Gehrig, Honus Wagner, Mickey Mantle and others bring high prices. With old cards from the 1880s and early 1900s, look for tobacco and candy brands, such as Old Judge, Piedmont, Sweet Caporal or American Caramel. Really old Sports memorabilia from the 19th and early 20th Century, such as photographs, postcards, bats, gloves and balls are also collectible. When opting to sell sports items, consider a specialty auction, such as Love of the Game, which has the expertise to professionally research sports items and maintains lists of bidders specializing in this area, to get top dollar. More information is available at loveofthegameauctions.com.
do you have greats from the recent past, like Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, Derek Jeter or Joe Montana? Check if your cards are denoted as Rookie, Prospect, Draft Pick or other indicators they’re from a player’s first season. And condition is king, as cards that look pack fresh with sharp corners and a well-centered image command highest prices. Additionally, unopened packs and boxes from almost any year can be valuable.
Memorabilia
Do you have old advertising posters depicting sports stars or famous entertainment personalities together with food, tobacco or sporting goods brands. Many original signs, store displays and promotional items are collectible, especially those dating from the early 1900s into the 1960s. But low-quality reproductions aren’t. Look for memorabilia spotlighting sports heroes, superheroes, early Modern Cards Prices on recent baseball, Walt Disney characters and Star basketball and football cards have Wars subjects. risen rapidly. The three keys are So, while you’re spring cleaning condition, star power and cards that attic, basement or garage, from early in player careers. Do you have major current stars, don’t rush to the garbage. Before like Mike Trout, Patrick Mahomes, throwing out old “junk,” determine Tom Brady and LeBron James? Or if it’s valuable! (StatePoint)

Luxury Real Estate & Lifestyles a
By Noelle Stanuch Memorial Day will be here before we know it, which means the Hamptons will soon be in full-swing, bustling with day-trippers, vacationers and of course its residents. If you live on Long Island, you may head out there for a day at the beach, a five-star dining experience or some shopping, but it isn’t necessarily where you call home. As one of the most sought after and premier luxury real estate markets in the country, it’s no surprise there’s a show that spotlights what it’s like to sell, build and live there. If you haven’t already watched Selling the Hamptons on discovery+, it’s about time you tune in! The show follows six Hamptons-based Nest Seekers real estate agents during the top selling season in the Hamptons. I sat down with J.B. Andreassi and Michael Fulfree, two of those real estate agents who are from Long Island themselves, to learn more about the show, luxury real estate as a whole and their personal lives. J.B. Andreassi is a 31 year old Southampton, NY native. He attended St. Anthony’s High School, where he met Michael Fulfree. He later graduated from Dartmouth College and worked for the National Hockey League before taking up his family legacy and transitioning into real estate. J.B.’s upbringing has provided him with unparalleled business and personal knowledge of the Hamptons, and has helped him become a successful real estate agent. He is also the Co-Principal of Andreassi Development, his family’s luxury real estate development business. Follow J.B. On Instagram: @jb_andreassi
J.B. Andreassi Photo Credit: discovery+ Michael Fulfree grew up in Centereach, NY and is 32 years old. He spent time in New York City and enjoyed a wildly successful international modeling career, where he worked with Calvin Klein, Dolce & Gabbana and many other high profile designers. He also attended St. Anthony’s High School and eventually decided on real estate as his profession. Michael now lives on the East End with his wife and young son, handling a range of client needs from listing exclusive rentals to finding the perfect eight-figure dream homes for his elite clientele. Follow Michael On Instagram: @mike_fulfree

While previously working in real estate, Michael had met the CEO of Nest Seekers, who let him know of an upcoming show about real estate that would be filmed in the Hamptons. Michael learned more and found out they still needed a cast. He later introduced J.B. to the CEO as well and the two decided to be a part of the show, Million Dollar Beach House, which became a hit. Discovery+ eventually started casting for Selling the Hamptons, and being as personable and hardworking as they are, of course J.B. and Michael landed a spot on that show too. “We never thought we’d end up on TV” said Andreassi. Peggy, Mia, Bianca and Kenny are the other four agents who work for the firm and hold a significant role in the show.

s In The Hamptons Although the six individuals weren’t all friends with each other prior to filming, they have all grown very close since. While watching Selling the Hamptons, you will learn more about Nest Seekers International, the game-changing firm in the rapidly expanding global real estate marketplace, which they work for. Side note, there are 120 real estate agents at that firm in the Hamptons alone! It’s not just New Yorkers that are interested in buying in the Hamptons though. J.B. has had people interested from all over the country and Michael had two interested buyers from the U.K. recently. Additionally, J.B. added “I had someone buy from Dubai as like a total rental investment property down in East Hampton Springs. Sight unseen.” However, real estate transactions in the Hamptons don’t always come easy. “This is the big leagues,” explained Michael. “It’s so competitive.” Lavish events, networking and marketing are just some of what goes into selling real estate on the East End. “Events are really big in the Hamptons,” said J.B. “If you have a big time listing, $5 million plus, an owner is gonna expect that you are doing something that’s a little more extravagant than just the regular traditional marketing, and one of those things is throwing events.” So, does Selling the Hamptons portray life in the Hamptons well? Both the guys both had something to say. “We’re showing the beaches, the wineries, the equestrian, the boating, the restaurants that we go to all the time,” said J.B. “From a lifestyle standpoint I think we actually did a very good job representing it.” Michael jumped in adding, “Yeah I mean, I think things are a little more laid back than we probably portray.” They both agreed that the biggest misconception about the Hamptons is the stuffiness. “There are a lot of really good people out here that care about each other,” said Michael. “It’s a really special community.” Want to know more about their personal lives? Read on! Q: How would you describe yourself in three words? Michael: Loyal, Humorous and Lighthearted. J.B.: Accountable, Genuine and Outgoing. Q: What’s your favorite beach on Long Island? Michael: Coopers Beach. J.B.: Flying Point. Q: What’s your favorite restaurant on Long Island? Michael: Cowfish. J.B.: Bell & Anchor. Q: Other than real estate, what’s your biggest passion? Michael: Fishing. J.B.: Sports. So go ahead, watch Selling the Hamptons now on discovery+, you won’t regret it.

This Cheerful Dessert Brings Smiles To Easter Celebrations
T
he fresh, bright flavor of lemon can bring a cheery ambiance to any occasion when it makes an appearance in delicious recipes. Lemon essence seems ripe for spring and summer entertaining, and can feature prominently in Easter desserts. Such is the case with this recipe for “Lemon Poppy Seed Pound Cake” from “The Pampered Chef® Stoneware Inspirations” by The Pampered Chef® Test Kitchens. Lemon Poppy Seed Pound Cake Yield: 16 servings 1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour 1 1⁄2 cups granulated sugar 2 tablespoons lemon zest 2 tablespoons poppy seeds 1 teaspoon baking powder 1⁄2 teaspoon salt 3⁄4 cup (1 1⁄2 sticks) butter, softened (do not substitute margarine) 4 ounces cream cheese, softened 4 eggs 2 tablespoons milk 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Powdered sugar (optional) Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 325 F. Spray Stoneware Fluted Pan (or any bundt cake pan) with nonstick cooking spray. Combine flour, granulated sugar, lemon zest, poppy seeds, baking powder, and salt in a 2-quart mixing bowl; mix well. In a 4-quart mixing bowl, beat butter and cream cheese on high speed of handheld electric mixer 1 minute. Add flour mixture; beat on low speed 1 minute or until blended (mixture will form a stiff paste). 2. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, milk and vanilla just until blended. Add egg mixture to cream cheese mixture in four additions, beating 2 minutes after each addition. (Do not undermix.) 3. Pour batter into pan. Bake 55 to 60 minutes or until a cake tester inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool cake in pan 10 minutes. Loosen cake from sides of pan; carefully invert onto a cooling rack, keeping pan over cake. Cool completely. 4. Place cake on serving platter. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or prepare a glaze, if desired. www.longislandmediagroup.com/seasons-magazine

Celebrate Passover With Homemade Charoset
P
assover is steeped in tradition. Many of these traditions involve symbolic foods which tell the story of the Israelites and their miraculous exodus from Egyptian slavery. One such food is charoset (also spelled haroset), which symbolizes the mortar the Israelites used to build bricks when they were slaves in Egypt. Charoset is a fruit relish used on small sandwiches made from matzoh and bitter herbs. The bittersweet taste is supposed to teach the bitterness of bondage and the sweetness of freedom. Passover celebrants can make their own charoset by following this recipe, courtesy of Israel My Glory magazine. Charoset Makes 15 tablespoons 1 large apple, any variety 1⁄2 cup chopped nuts 2 tablespoons honey 1 teaspoon cinnamon Small amount of lemon juice (optional) Directions: The easiest method is to put the apples and nuts into a food processor and pulse until finely diced. Sprinkle enough lemon juice on the mixture to keep the apples from turning brown. Then mix in the other ingredients. Some people also mix in a little grape juice or wine. The recipe is very forgiving, so the measurements do not have to be exact.
The Similarities Between Passover And Easter
T
o the casual observer, Passover and Easter may not to seem to have much in common. While the two holidays are celebrated by people of different faiths, they share certain similarities. Both Passover and Easter celebrate fundamental tenets of their respective faiths. For Christians, Easter commemorates the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, a moment that has shaped the lives of faithful Christians ever since. During Passover, Jews honor a moment in history that helped free slaves from captivity and shape them into the people of Israel. In addition, historians believe that the Passion of Christ, which is the short final period of Jesus’ life, occurred during the observance of Pesach, or Passover. During this time, Jesus went to Jerusalem in response to a mandate to appear at the Temple. It also is believed that the Last Supper described in all four Gospels was likely a Passover seder. Liberation and rebirth also are at the heart of both holidays.

Start Cinco de Mayo With A Savory Breakfast
C
inco de Mayo celebrates the date of the Mexican army’s victory over France at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. Though it is considered a relatively minor holiday in Mexico, Cinco de Mayo celebrations in the United States are significant. The holiday has now become a commemoration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large MexicanAmerican populations. However, even people who do not trace their ancestry to Mexico enjoy Cinco de Mayo celebrations. Why wait until dinner time to start the party? This recipe for “Eggs With Chorizo” from “The Complete Mexican, South American & Caribbean Cookbook” (Metro Books) by Jane Milton, Jenni Fleetwood and Marina Filippelli makes for an ideal breakfast on Cinco de Mayo.
Eggs With Chorizo Serves 4 In Mexico there are two types of chorizo, one that is freshly made and served loose and another that is packed in sausage skins and air-dried. This recipe calls for the loose variety. 2 tablespoons lard 1 1⁄4 pounds ground pork 3 cloves garlic, crushed
Directions:
2 teaspoons dried oregano
Melt the lard in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the pork mince and cook until browned, stirring frequently. Stir in the garlic, dried oregano, cinnamon, cloves, and black pepper. Cook 3 to 4 minutes.
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cloves 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Add the sherry, sugar, and salt to the pork, stir well and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the flavors are blended. Remove from heat.

Teaching Children How To Protect Birds

art of being a good environmental steward is passing on this wisdom to the next generation. Here are three hands-on ways parents and grandparents can teach children to protect the birds in their very own backyard.

Build a Bird Feeder
Build bird feeders using natural or recycled materials to teach two earth-friendly lessons in one: the importance of reducing waste and the need to take care of local wildlife. Bird feeders can be crafted from milk cartons, tin cans, mason jars or even natural materials like pinecones. As you decorate your bird feeders, talk to your kids about how birds are not just beautiful, but also a vital part of the ecosystem and how you are offering these creatures a chance to rest and refuel. Fill your finished products with birdseed and choose a safe spot to hang them. Experts recommend bird feeders be positioned either closer than three feet or farther than 30

feet from windows.
Protect Flight
Birds in flight are prone to strike windows. Fortunately, there’s an easy home project you and your children can complete together that will help prevent this from happening. Applying decals that reflect ultraviolet sunlight to your home’s windows, particularly
windows that are highly reflective of open sky, has been proven to substantially reduce the likelihood of bird strikes. Those from WindowAlert feature patterns that give the appearance of slightly frosted translucent glass, but glow like a stoplight for birds. Kids can help select from fun decal designs like snowflakes, butterflies and maple leaves. The brand also
Popular Insect Repellant Plants
H
omeowners choose plants for their properties based on a number of variables. Some may be into growing their own foods, while others desire their gardens to be an awe-inspiring mélange of bright colors and alluring scents. There’s no wrong reason to plant a fresh garden, but some plants offer extra benefits, such as repelling insects. Insects can be a nuisance and a threat to individuals’ overall health. According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, insect-borne diseases are viral and bacterial illnesses that develop from insect bites. Mosquitoes, sand flies and fleas are some examples of insects that can pass on disease. Fever, chills, headache, and muscle soreness are just a few of the more common symptoms linked to insect-borne diseases. The good news for avid gardeners is that certain plants can help repel insects and provide the additional benefits
like fresh food and aesthetic appeal that so many people love. • Basil: The aroma of fresh basil is enough to compel any gardener to make a place for it in their garden. But there’s more to fresh basil than its scent, as the Farmers Almanac notes it can be used to repel mosquitoes and moths. • Lavender: Fleas, flies, mosquitoes, and moths are not fans of this aromatic and colorful

member of the mint family. Bees tend to be drawn to lavender, a durable plant that many garden centers recommend in areas prone to drought or hot summers without much precipitation. • Mint: Mint is another plant that is instantly recognizable for its aroma. But mint lovers may not realize that it’s also great for keeping ants at bay. Mint also can be used to repel mosquitoes, but gardeners with no experience planting mint

Now that you’ve invited birds to your yard and have taken steps to protect them, inspire young naturalists to keep a log of flying visitors. Kids can draw pictures of the birds they see and note their observations. Visit Audubon for Kids at audubon.org for a birding guide, activities, games and additional projects that can help kids learn to identify various bird species by sight and sound. “Environmental stewardship starts in your own backyard and people of all ages can get involved, including kids,” says Spencer Schock, founder of WindowAlert. “The good news is that turning your home into a refuge for birds is fun, easy, and something parents, grandparents and kids can work on together.” (StatePoint)
should plant it in pots. That’s because the Farmers Almanac notes mint is an especially aggressive spreader that can quickly take over a garden. Separating mint in pots can prevent it from bullying its way into other plants’ domains. • Lemongrass: Lemongrass is a tropical grass that’s so fragrant it’s often used in perfumes. Lemongrass contains citronella, which many people associate with repelling mosquitoes. A potted lemongrass plant can repel these unwanted guests, keeping them away from decks, porches and/or patios all summer long. • Chrysanthemums: The Farmers’ Almanac® recommends using chrysanthemums, which repel a range of insects from bedbugs to fleas to ants, as border plants around a home. That’s because they contain the natural insecticide pyrethrin, which can serve as something of an insect-repelling boundary around a home.
