8 Things to Do While it’s Still Spring

1. Plan a weekend trip: Pick a place you’ve always wanted to visit, grab your friends and hit the road. There are plenty of long weekends in the summer, but why not beat the crowds and go this Spring.

2. Learn a new recipe: You can learn how to make your favourite dish,or learn the recipe of something you’ve always wanted to try like sushi or your favourite restaurant dish. Just try something new and have fun while doing it. Try my latest cocktail recipe, Orange Mint Julep or my Cucumber Scallion Salad.

3. Improve your photography skills: Get your camera out and go shoot outside. Find tutorials on how to use your camera and try a few techniques. You’ll have amazing summer photos to look back on.

4. Clean your closet: Donate anything you haven’t worn in a year or that doesn’t fit you. It is after all the season for Spring cleaning.

5. Learn to DIY: Learn how to do something yourself. Try a new DIY patio project or make your own tote bag for summer. Pinterest is full of these projects.

6. Go to the local farmer’s market: Spring is the season where the farmer’s markets are bursting with fresh produce! Find your local market, go with an empty stomach and sample local foods and grab a bite from a food truck. It’s a great way to spend a morning or afternoon.

7. Start exercising: Now that the weather is getting warmer, it’s is the perfect time to start. Let’s be honest, weall want the perfect beach body for Summer, right?

8. Have a picnic with your friends: Pack up yummy picnic dishes, grab a blanket and a portable music player and head to the park. Check out my five fresh places to picnic on Luvo’s Fresh Blog.

9. Go on a bike ride: Grab your bike and explore your city this way instead of by car or transit. It’s a nice evening activity and the bonus is you are also exercising.

10. Host a game night: Invite your friends over and have fun playing board games all night. Don’t forget awesome snacks! There are so many great games out there now to play as a group or bring out the classics like charades or Scrabble.

    This is a fantastic list! I am so so excited that it is farmer’s market season finally! I’m shooting for the trifecta of fresh fruit and veggies, learning new things to do with them, and exercising more regularly…I’ve been off the wagon for all three since last summer!

    Yes! Great list! I love spring so much. My favorite is definitely the farmer’s market! We have a small local one we like to go to, as well as a huge one with a ton of great vendors. So great to just get out and walk around in the beautiful spring air!
