Getting Ready For Easter

On Good Friday I made some Choc-mint Slices and some Mini Lemon Meringue Tarts for the family gathering that afternoon.

(The gathering was lots of fun and my sweet offerings were a smash)

On Easter Saturday I made some Easter baskets.  One each for the boys so they can, as requested, have another Easter Egg Hunt.

(We had the inaugural Egg Hunt last Easter and it was a smash.  PS If you follow that link, check out the amateur baskets I cobbled together last year. I am so on my Sewing P-plates now.)

As for Easter Sunday, well, unfortunately I think once the search for chocolate is over and we farewell Fixit and Climber for their little jaunt to the hills I will have to spend the rest of the day dealing with the mess all my creativity created.

Yikes!  Lucky there'll be plenty of chocolate to sustain me.

Wishing you a Happy Easter.

  4. You are going leaps and bounds with your crafting, I am getting bored saying "well done" all the time, so I will just say "I agree with Tania!!"

  6. Wow, those baskets are fabulous :) My kids each got a bowl out of the kitchen cupboard. I'm so ashamed.
