Simple Joys

Our May/June issue is all about savoring the simple joys of a Southern summer. Of course balmy temperatures and sunny skies top the list, so we’ve planned plenty of ways to enjoy the great outdoors. Visit one of our favorite boutique garden shops for inspiration and helpful hints before applying your green-thumb gifts to our ideas for creative containers, mason jar arrangements, and a chandelier crowned with flora and foliage. Then stop off at the farmers’ market for baskets of just-picked produce to turn into fabulous, fresh dishes perfect for summer entertaining. Finally, welcome family back to the old homestead for a family reunion filled with good times, favorite dishes—think old-fashioned strawberry pie—and plenty of priceless memories.


Also in this issue you can:

- Think pink with a setting of rose-colored Depression glass.
- Turn a potting table into an outdoor hostess station.
- Tour Bayou Bend, one of Texas’s great historic estates.
