For instant happy, just add some yellow!

We’ve got yellow fever this week! But in a good way. It’s hard not to feel cheery when you’re surrounded by what’s probably the official color of smiley faces everywhere. So if you need a visual pick-me-up, try some yellow daisies or sunflowers. Or add lemons to a flower arrangement. And for a pick-me-up for your palate, add lemon slices to your water — or your cocktail… always my favorite! Summer is heating up, but keeping the color yellow around can help you feel a little bit cooler, almost as if it’s still spring!
