Editor’s Note: May Flowers

It’s May in New Orleans, and that means blooms, festivals, Mother’s Day, the end of school and so much more. We’ve compiled an issue full of seasonal ideas that will take you confidently from the fest to Zoo-to-Do.

Molly Kimball’s Wellness column hits the nail on its head covering key suggestions to find balance in our increasingly hectic everyday lives. May can be a super busy and stressful time for many different reasons, so this is a most welcome topic, and as usual, Molly’s tips are approachable and well-informed.

Our fashion pages feature local artist and interior designer Page Goss, who does great work both on and off the canvas partnering with organizations like Son of a Saint and Fleur de Bra.

And oh, do we have a treat for you with this month’s fine jewelry feature. These stunning treasures from local shops are a sight to behold!

Amy Gabriel takes petal pushing to the next level with a selection of gorgeous floral inspired décor finds on pg. 18.

Mother’s Day can be a complicated time for many with mixed emotions, and we fully recognize that. Jyl Benson shares a lovely chicken salad tale with a bit of history and recipe for the occasion in our Eat + Drink column. This can and should be enjoyed with any beloved and cherished people in your life.

We also bring you our Registry of Charitable Events from May through August. If you represent an event that was not submitted or included, please use the form on our website to send us the details.

Happy May!
