Let’s hop into it! 🐇

MENTIONED/RESOURCES:

* Jungalow Decorate Wild | Justina Blakeney | This book is for you if you want inspiration or to refresh your home just in time for Spring! This is one of my forever books; it’s always in the “keep” pile when I am spring cleaning.

* Tag Along Too Cooler in Blush| Igloo (other spring-like colors available) - Perfect for a day in the park or a road trip!

* Pretty in Pastel Bento Box | Perfect Texture Co | Etsy - This bento box is cute yet still feels “grown-up.”

* Dosirak (Dosilock Lunch Box) | Lock & Lock | Gochujar - I saw this lunchbox in a Korean Foodie YouTuber’s video, and it was love at first sight. Oddly, though, it’s easy to find Lock & Lock products Stateside…I’ve only seen this model on Gochujar, which ships from Korea, which increases the cost. If you know where these might be sold Stateside, please let me know!

* Find a National Park Near You | US National Park Service - Spring is the perfect excuse to visit a national park! Consider a local or state park if that’s not in the cards.

* Military Pass (FREE!) for US National Parks | USGS—If you’re a veteran or serving in the US military, you could be eligible for a free Military Pass!

Several paid and free entry passes are also available for senior citizens, 4th graders, and folks with permanent disabilities, as well as annual passes, lifetime passes, and more. CLICK HERE to review and learn more about the US National Parks entry passes that are currently available.

* Nike Air Max 90 LV8 (I like the Medium Pink and Smokey Mauve colors) | Nike—I’m usually an Adidas sneaker person. Still, this shoe sports stacked Nike Air units, which give you extra height and comfort. I'm seriously considering getting these.

Fresh and Light Recipes for the Spring!

* My favorite orzo salad recipe is an oldie but goodie! It tastes best chilled, but you can also serve it warm.

* 43 Spring Dinner Ideas That Will Bring You Back to Life | Bon Appetit

* Strawberry Spinach Salad with Strawberry Balsamic Vinegar | Two Peas and Their Pod

* (Jeju March Vlog) Early Spring in Eastern Jeju | JiYoung Dorner - Join this family of four in Jeju (Korea’s largest island). This video features delicious food, cultural destinations, and natural wonders. Their itinerary is relatively easy to duplicate or add on to, whether traveling solo, as a couple, or with family and friends.
