Apparently it’s a “thing” in the magazine industry to create mock covers in honor of someone’s birthday…so says veteran graphic designer (and friend of the show, and personal friend) Joe Caserto. He created this unofficial mock May cover for Rob’s big 5-0 b-day and it’s amazeballs!
How do YOU handle your candle? And I can’t wait to read the article on page 69. Surely it’s about raising your own roosters in your backyard.
On this month’s episode of Could Be Better, we indulge in some speech therapy practice as J. heads towards recovery from a brain hemorrhage. Can you say “editor’s letter” without blending the sounds together? We warm up with a ginger-liqueur cider but say “tag for hate” on another outdoor entertaining suggestion. We’re in for the chocolate spice cake skewers, though. There’s a lot of food in the February issue but we do have paint can lids in mint green. A less polarizing pastel? We decide. Also: indoor gardening, another white room, and a retro 1950s room straight out of the ’70s. Get your magazine, follow along and practice your speech therapy! Signature cocktail: ginger-pear cider warmer. Music by Bensound.com. Credits by Tim Lawton.

As it turns out, swooning over hot gardeners is a “thing” with us. In our April 2019 episode, Kelly Norris has us ready to jump right into (garden) beds.
Matt Mattus has us dreaming of big…gladiolas. He declared them #ontrend in BHG March 2019 issue.
And our ode to hot gardeners couldn’t be complete without getting pumped over Bravo’s “BackYard Envy” host, Garrett Magee. This mustachioed hunk might make some think “70s gay porn star.” We’re totally okay with that. We love #retro!
