Idaho Potato Drop While the COVID-19 pandemic changed plans, the Idaho Potato Drop still lowered a massive spud to ring in 2021. Held at the Ford Idaho Center Amphitheater instead of Downtown Boise, the event featured two bands, athletes, and some great fireworks. Attendees included staff and sponsor representatives from the Idaho Potato Commission, Mountain America Credit Union, and T-Mobile.

Zoo guests will have to look carefully though, as Gloria carries the baby on her back so their stripes match up. This allows baby anteaters to camouflage from predators. Gloria and McCauley were paired together by the Species Survival Plan. This is Gloria’s fourth baby and McCauley’s third. To see the new baby, visit zooboise.org for tickets.

"BPD’s traffic teams do regular weekend patrols at night, as well as assist with special events during the day.

HOW TO RELIVE MY CHILDHOOD EVERY DAY SCROLLING THROUGH MY INSTAGRAM FEED WHILE DAYDREAMING OF THE PERFECT HOME FOR MY FAMILY, I REMEMBER THE JOY OF SUMMER DAYS AND HOLIDAY NIGHTS SPENT IN MY GRANDPARENT’S FARMHOUSE IN STAR. Self-sufficiency is an Idaho tradition, and living in a warm and spacious farmhouse on acreage for my kids and animals to roam is a connection to my past and to a time that was simpler. However, I also crave and wholeheartedly endorse every modern comfort, soothing color palette, and attention to architectural detail. It’s rare when I find the “sweet spot” that embodies the atmosphere of the past with the vibe of the present. 22

Farmhouse”

listed

Kayla Fearn combines nostalgia with laid-back luxury and blends the best of both worlds. From a kick-off-yourboots mudroom to a dog-washing station for dirty paws, this is a home built for large and loud Sunday dinners with family, and a place where I can later escape into the sanctuary of a deep soaking tub. It wouldn’t be a farmhouse without making breakfast with fresh eggs from the hens in the chicken coop, riding Lady stabled in the barn, eating the bounty from the large garden, and grazing the prized steer on the hay grown on 5 acres of land. In fact, being self-sufficient could include sipping wine from my very own irrigated vineyards. Grandma would approve. Contact 43re.com for more information on this modern Eagle farmhouse.

Now let’s talk about a few luxuries that are always a nice way to start off the new year. New bedding is first on the list. There is nothing like a fresh pair of sheets. They are so welcoming and will assist in a good night’s rest. Look for breathable cotton or linen blends. As the nights start to get warmer you will be more comfortable in a cool fresh bed. The last thing on my list for a spring makeover are a few new throw pillows and possibly a new area rug. I try to change out my sofa throw pillows seasonally. My secret is to buy the same size covers so I can easily change them out and store my extras folded up in my linen closet. This way I can have multiple looks but not take up a huge amount of space. By just changing out a few pillows and rug you can get a whole new look without breaking the bank. I hope these tips inspired you to give your home a quick and easy spring makeover.

SPRING IN JACKSON HOLE REJUVENATES AND REGENERATES

SPRING IS A TIME OF REBIRTH: BUDDING FLOWERS, BABY ANIMALS, AND A GOOD TIME TO HIT THE RESET BUTTON. As the world begins to recover and rebuild – businesses, jobs, lives – remember to include the spirit. Take time to nourish your soul as the days lengthen and we leave the uncertainty and chaos of last year in the rearview mirror. Perhaps there is a greater appreciation in this season for what we have; for our abilities and freedoms and the opportunity to seek regeneration. Whether a staycation in the Treasure Valley or a long weekend in a neighboring state, there is something about a change of scenery, meeting new people, or eating a new dish that invigorates the soul.

TRAVEL DESTINATION (CONTINUED)

My husband and I recently visited Jackson Hole, Wyo. for a new experience in the “old west,” a secluded mountaintop retreat that exudes warmth and welcome and something out of the ordinary. The name itself sets the expectation: Amangani means peaceful home. It’s part of the worldwide Aman family of resorts, and one of only two in the United States. The theme at the luxurious Amangani is one of nature and simplicity, and it’s a perfect complement to the surroundings. The resort feels more like a tranquil home than an opulent hotel. Rattan and natural sinew chairs are lined with faux fur cushions throughout the lounge areas and suites. The two-story windows facing the valley below greeted us with marvelous views. The wood-lined walls and fireplaces harken back to the pioneer days of the west. Imagine yourself in a cozy, rustic old-west cabin on a mountaintop with a crackling fire and a fur blanket. Then kick it up five stars. “Our locations are strategically chosen and offer a sense of peace and tranquility,” said Amangani General Manager Stuart Lang. “We create sanctuaries where our guests can unwind and rebalance.” When I need to hit the reset button, I seek out experiences that create joy. Big or small, those feelings of enjoyment truly are healing, and my go-to is a spa day. With a menu of curative treatments I opted to start my Amangani Spa day in the eucalyptus steam room to warm up and unwind. Afterward I donned my thick robe and slippers and walked to the infinity pool overlooking the valley. I sank into the jetted hot pool and sat chin-deep in the hot water which gave me a sense of levitation. I felt one with the land as my senses took in the clean air and incredible vista.

“We invite guests to come and experience what we offer,” Lang said. “Ours is a very unscripted, intuitive hotel-stay experience,” Lang said. “Amangani is the base camp. Our guests come to explore and rebalance. ‘Wide open spaces’ is the theme; clean air and natural resources abound,” he added. SPRING AND SUMMER ACTIVITIES TO PURSUE IN THE AREA: ENJOY A WILDLIFE EXPEDITION. Keep an eye out for bison, moose, and bear, as well as bald eagles and mountain bluebirds. Teton National Park is number one in the nation for wildlife viewing! SPEND A DAY CRUISING YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK. Two million acres of diverse flora and fauna make up our nation’s first national park. From mountain lakes and waterfalls to steaming geysers, a daytrip is a must. HIKE OR BIKE THROUGH THE SCENIC VALLEY OR TO MOUNTAIN LAKES. There are recommended routes for all ability levels, and private guides can help make it happen. “My sister and I visited Jackson Hole last fall and hiked the Jenny Lake trail, and it was a highlight of our trip,” said Meridian resident Krista West. “The trail makes a 7.4-mile loop with stunning views of the lake.” During our Amangani stay it was easy to experience their peaceful home. I understand why people come from across the U.S. and from around the world. Nature provides the wildlife, rivers, wide valleys, and the jutting Teton Mountain range. We saw elk, deer, eagles, and hawks. I watched keenly for moose, but they eluded me this time. We felt a natural calling to drive, hike, explore,

take photos and soak up the magnificence.

CULINARY CREATIONS

t he good ness of spr i n g ARTICLE MCKENZIE JOYNER PHOTOGRAPHY ANNA LEE PHOTOGRAPHY

Hi! I’m McKenzie and I’m so excited to share three of my favorite spring recipes with you! We leave the months of winter and heavier food behind us and welcome in the fresh, light foods that grow abundantly in spring. Crisp peas, long asparagus, crunchy radishes, fresh greens, all nourishing foods that hold so much goodness and radiate vibrant colors. Starting to implement these lighter, brighter foods back into our meals is like a breath of fresh air. Allow these foods to fill your plate and fuel your body with nutrients and energy. The recipes I’ve prepared are chock-full of nutrient-dense and delicious ingredients that will have you feeling your best. I practice seasonal eating, which is eating produce that is naturally in season. Seasonal eating allows you to source your food locally, which gives you the opportunity to eat food quickly after harvesting. This means you are ingesting the produce at the height of its nutritional value instead of days or weeks after harvest, which is the case for most foods at the grocery store. If you haven’t found a local farm near you to support, I highly encourage you to find one today. It will change what you put on your plate, the way you feel, and how you live your life! Follow me on CityLifestyle.com for more recipes and where I share simple and realistic holistic health tips... Now, let’s get to the good stuff!

HOME BUYING AS A COUPLE

ENSURE YOUR DREAMS OF HOME OWNERSHIP WILL COME TRUE

IF YOU AND YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER HOPE TO BUY A HOME TOGETHER, IT’S IMPORTANT TO GO IN WITH YOUR EYES OPEN. “Couples often go house shopping first before they even think about the mortgage,” said Suzi Boyle of Castle & Cooke Mortgage. “But that’s like getting married before your first date!” “When a couple purchases a home together, lenders assess the couple’s ability to purchase jointly,” explains Boyle. “One person’s credit or income could affect the couple’s ability to qualify for a mortgage at all.”

So before you start hitting open houses, there are some questions you can ask of each other, similar to those from a lender. HOW MUCH DEBT DO YOU HAVE? If you’ve never talked about debt, brace for some surprises potentially the bad kind. Any credit card debt you’re carrying will show up once you undergo the pre-approval process for a mortgage: car loans, personal loans, and even child support obligations. All this matters because of your debt-to-income ratio—that’s a number your lender will look at to decide if you can afford to pay back a loan. The lender will add up all your monthly debts and divide them by your combined monthly income. To qualify for a mortgage, that number cannot be over 43%, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, but ideally should be under 36%. WHAT’S YOUR CREDIT SCORE? Your credit score is a number that represents how well you’ve paid off past debts. As lenders see it, that number shows how likely it is that
