Happy Easter for those of you who celebrate this holiday. Happy Sunday for everyone who reads this blog.
It’s a gray morning. I’m hoping the sun comes out at some point. Yesterday was simply gorgeous. Don and I went on a trail walk. I’m determined to lose some pounds in the next month or so.
I used to put bunny ears on Scout every Easter and I briefly considered posting one of those photos on this post. But I find I’m not ready to do that yet. Maybe next year.
My Little Z, however, does have bunny ears on and we received an Easter message from him this morning. He’s adorable.
Enjoy your day. Eat some chocolate!
Happy Sunday.
Sweet little nest. And sweet little egg cup. Aye, aye, Captain…eating chocolate as I write!
Good for you! Happy Easter, Shanna!
Love the egg cup and the photos on Instagram have been great fun. It’s raining here but heading to church soon. Hoping the rain has washed the pollen away. I think I will have a bite of chocolate before leaving the house, great idea! Happy Easter to you and Don.
hugs,
Linda
Happy Easter, Linda!
Happy Easter to you and Don.
Happy Easter, Kathy!
Happy Easter!!

Happy Easter, Nancy!
I’ve been enjoying seeing your egg cups on Instagram. Amd yes…. chocolate bunnies are on the menu. Happy Easter! ;)
Enjoy, Donnamae! Happy Easter!
Ahhh, not even 11 a.m. and I am munching on jelly beans…chocolate to come later! Love your nest in the egg cup. Sun is finally making an appearance here today. I’m going to try to get a walk in.
I am, too, Vera. No sun yet and rain for tomorrow. Happy Easter!
Happy Easter!

Happy Easter Claudia and Don. We had a big storm yesterday afternoon and a good sized oak limb fell on our driveway. Thankfully there wasn’t anyone or anything there at the time. Beautiful sunshine today. Eating lunch at my mother in laws with family. Hope you enjoy your day.
Sorry about the limb but I’m happy there was no damage or injury, Janie! Happy Easter.
Happy Easter!
Happy Easter, Tricia!
Happy Easter!
My daughter is in bed this weekend with bronchitis, but the sun is shining today while Sting sings “Brand New Day” which seems somehow appropriate. Yesterday a friend gave me the gift of Johanna Basford’s “Lost Ocean”, so I think I know how I’ll be spending an hour this afternoon!
Contrary to what some may think, colouring is not “useless”. Commissioned pastel portraits have paid for holidays and all sorts of extras in our household for years and a colouring book is a great way to relax and warm up before embarking on any “serious” colouring.
How timely! Here we are talking about Johanna Brasford and now you have your book! I’m sorry about your daughter having bronchitis. I used to have bouts with that when I was younger. It’s not fun! I know you’re taking good care of her!
Amen to the second part of your comment. I’ve had a comment on the blog and one privately where the writers denounced coloring and coloring books. They are entitled to their opinions, of course, but why – when I’ve been through the loss of my parents and my dog and I said it was helping me – they would take the time to comment negatively, is beyond me!
Perhaps “colouring” just strikes some as a frivolous notion or perhaps they’re put off by the usual people trying to cash in on this idea with inferior product. Johanna Basford is a very talented graphic artist whose work predates this “craze”.
I think there are people who find it frivolous or boring and a waste of time. To each his own.
I wish I could send you some of our sun and 70s temps (steadily climbing) from here in SoCalif. I’d like it to cool down today; we approached 90 yesterday and it’s too hot, too soon. As in other drought years…our last SEVERAL years…we are much too warm from April to November; the window for nice, cool weather is so small for us and I much prefer nice, cool weather!
About an hour ago, my neighbors had a big Easter Egg Hunt for a bunch of teenagers (teens of driving age). I keep thinking, “I thought Easter Egg Hunts were for LITTLE kids.” So, I found myself pondering, hmmm, I wonder what exactly was IN those eggs?! Maybe makeup for the girls, gift cards for the boys (money in general!). That sort of thing would have been ‘way too uncool for my own teenage years, but maybe we were missing out!
I’m sort of jealous – I think it’s neat those kids went on an Easter Egg Hunt!
Happy Easter!
Blessings,
Betsy
The same to you, Betsy!
Buona Pasqua my friend. Sweet memory of those bunny ears…don’t they always make you smile xxoo
They do. Happy Easter, Ann Marie.
Second load of dishes in the dishwasher…. another Easter on the books. Everyone seemed to enjoy the food, and it is now very quiet here!! The dogs are actually snoring! They aren’t used to such commotion!
It was cloudy here today, but we didn’t have rain. Supposed to actually hit the 60 twice this coming week and that sounds wonderful.
Happy Easter to you & Don!!
Rain headed our way tomorrow, Chris. Happy Easter!
I hope you had a nice Easter.
Thank you, Doris.
Hope you had a nice day Claudia, I know how hard it must have been for you without your sweet Scout. Hopefully the sun is coming and it will get a bit better.
hugs
Sue
Thank you, Sue. Some days are better than others – yesterday was tough.
I hope you and Don had a peaceful Easter Sunday Claudia…I will never forget Miss Scout looking so cute in her bunny ears….
Me either, Nancy.
