Sme at you, Patti! Easter was never a big deal at our house when I was growing up, my mom colored a few eggs, which meant we had egg salad sandwiches for lunch and sliced eggs in the salad at dinner until they were gone. That's a cute picture, what fun.
Have a happy one, yourself! My parents leaned toward craftiness (in the good, avocational way) and my mother enjoyed coloring eggs with us, as well...Paas got the annual business from us.
Alice came in late last night from a visit with our friend Theo, who was getting a Covid vaccination yesterday, and groused a bit on her way in about the RC church down the street bell-ringing at 11:30p. We are a devout household, she a Daoist and I an atheist...Ninja the cat is non-declared.
Never ones for tradition, we had cold corned beef and cabbage and jelly beans for a picnic lunch on the beach with the tribe. A lovely day. No dolphins in sight, though.

Happy Easter to you and your family!

Have a fantastic Easter, Patti!
