Easter in a nutshell

we thought we'd try natural dyes. turns out i have no idea how to use them. we ended up buying the toxic kind instead after all.






the Easter bunny was very healthy this year. other than 3 chocolate eggs (which yes, i did open and eat before documenting the good news), i received only healthy things. and lovely flowers that make our whole apartment smell lovely.







 

the Easter bunny didn't bother bringing Alex any candy. he still has Christmas candy in his not-so-secret hiding spot under the bed. so, he got plastic eggs filled with notes instead.


my mom was nice enough to mail us these! a tradition of our families has been to have these eggs in our baskets for as long as i can remember. when the lady stopped making them, my grandma and mom had to learn and make them themselves. it's been a lot of disasters over the years, but this year i think they were perfect. the true definition of Egg Hunting was discovered by me this year, as the act of finishing my own egg and then ransacking the house to look for my husbands chocolate egg. i don't think he appreciates them quite as much as i do. or so i tell myself to justify sneaking a taste of his.


happy late easter!
