sp-egg-tacular.

i don't know about you, but i always get eggstra eggcited about easter. this year, it came too fast and i wasn't fully prepared, but we did have a little bit of an egg hunt around the house and indulged in eggnormous amounts of food and candy. i always like to see what kind of new candy they come out with. last year, i was introduced to edible easter grass and bought some this year. it's so fun to eat. mini-he had fun coloring eggs. his final egg was swirled and swirled in every color for a good 20 minutes until it was an ugly brown. but, by morning it was kind of pretty. all the scratches (from his stirring) allowed the pretty colors to show thru. it's quite a
speggtacular masterpiece, i'd say...compared to mine.

what's your favorite part of easter?

Yeah we had a couple of those brown eggs too :o). She actually cracked most of them just putting them (not so gently) into the dye. LOL! It was a fun time, glad yours was too!

I have a jar full of Easter candy sitting on the counter, and twice today, my two year old took me by the hand, led me to the counter, and just smiled at me. She knows, if she just asks for a piece of candy, I'll tell her know, but if she's all cute about it, the candy is probably hers. Rotten little thing...

I love the teal color of the blouse, and I think that clutch, with all of its pretty colors, might be one of my favorites!

Haha my favourite part of Easter right now is how many egg words you created. I love it. And the colour of your blouse. Gorgeous.

Easter is fun for the eggs and creativity. Decorating eggs is one of my favorite activities.

Your outfit is cute. Nice top and pretty ring.

I love your loose cotton-y ensemble. It reminds me to anticipate warmer weather. I love loose cotton tops for summer. Which reminds me, did you have a chance to look at the link I emailed you? talk soon D

I love this outfit! I favorite part of easter time is seeing all of the pastel colors everywhere! It's also a time for me and my parents to go to church together, which is always nice.

Awww looks like you enjoyed your easter, I miss coloring eggs :/ mini-he's turned out nice! Btw, you look great. Love that top. What I love the most about easter is candy and the cute chicks :P

Amazing clutch!
Here in Greece we celebrate Easter the coming Sunday and this one is a really religious week. My favorite part is painting eggs and of course the food. It's the holiday with the best traditional food here

good times tora said...

oh that looks like loads of fun! I cooked a big roast dinner for a bunch of friends- was awesome. Couldn't eat chocolate though as on Atkins before my holiday in May, so I had to make do with a big lump of cow!

Call me M said...

The best thing about Easter for me is the food, and the dressing up! As smugnificent said above, we celebrate Easter this Sunday in Greece, and we eat traditional food.
I liked mini-he's egg. But yours is pretty too!
