Al fresco dining is a very broad term that encompasses any meal at any time of the day, be it a morning tea or snacks watching the sun set or dinner under the moon light – there are so many ways to define it. One common trend is that it is outside and entails eating of some form.
The entrance to your home is the first thing a visitor sees. First impressions are very important so you should consider whether or not your front porch or entryway is doing what you want it to do.
Everyone knows that you don’t have to go far for a great picnic. Just make some sandwiches and snacks, lay a blanket on the lawn, and you’re ready … even if it’s just the usual fixin’s AND it’s your own home! Enjoying a few hours outdoors is easy – just invite over your favorite people, fill a cooler with some food and drinks, and enjoy yourselves in a casual but fun setting. After all, isn’t that what spring and summer are all about?
In summertime, I find that a house is always the happiest when it is full of friends and family, who always seem to migrate to the backyard. If you want to really enjoy your kids, it’s hard to do it when they’re in front of a video game or an iPad.
