Hope you had one too, whoever and 'huevo' you are! Ours was pretty action-filled, like a delicious cream egg, but magical none the less. Edie and I were busy little bunnies the last three weeks trying out different egg dyeing techniques on our precious ladies' eggs. Unfortunately, the ladies are only keen to lay brown eggs so it took a lot of layers (no pun intended) to make them non-brown (not to mention a lot of hue saturation on my photo software).
And check out the bunny loot! Easter hare was pretty funny this year. He tied a strand of pink angora yarn to Edie's door knob and blue to Kale's and then unraveled them all around the house leaving little trinkets along the trail. Edie looooved that little treasure hunt. Smart bunny. Smart too because I've been promising to knit up a spring beret for Edie for a while now. Any pattern suggestions? I'm considering this one or Spring Beret by Natalie Larson.
Easter garden was in full bloom with pom pom chicks Edie and I made with some stash yarn (everyone has bright yellow boucle kicking around, right?).
Hot Cross buns were baked up for our neighbour's annual Ukranian Easter Egg decorating party. Turned out pretty yummy! Edie loved squishing out the crosses using a frosting dispatching device.
And yesterday we had favourite fairy friends over for an egg hunt, cuddles and quiches. These little fairies go way back:
Ack! The cuteness!! I'll stop now. Where was I? Ah, yes, Easter party.
Then I pounded back a couple of mimosas, everything went all blurry and techno-coloured and then Edie tells me this morning that Craig and I put on a Frog Prince puppet show. Crazy. Well, I'm all tuckered out and I have a sneaking suspicion the Easter Hare might be too.
