Bunnies and Cookies





Good Morning!
This week end was pretty busy, but I was able to get some crafting done. I made the above "Bunny Garland" using a free pattern I picked up at Hancock's. I used blue and white toile so they would match my kitchen. It was a fun and quick project!
I Love Easter! I love that it comes in spring, I love the pretty pastel colors of Easter candy, I love lillies, the Easter Bunny, the words "new Easter dress", just everything about it in general! I guess that is what prompted me to make the Easter M & M cookies in the top picture. These are so good!
And one of the most exciting parts of this weekend was that my DH tilled the garden for me! This is a huge deal because he hates to garden! But he did it and now it's all ready for planting.

Hi LBP, and thanks for stopping by my blog and introducing yourself.

Your Bunny Garland is so cute. I see some terrific blue and white china on the wall too. I collect blue and white china and have tons of Willow Ware from various eras and by various makers. My kitchen itself is blue and white and I'm guessing maybe yours is also.

Smiled at your "new Easter dress" comment. How well I recall those, I was always tickled to get something new but often times they were "itchy"... those were the years of heavy starch and nylon net, LOL!

I remember getting new patent leather shoes,matching purse, gloves, hat and even a frilly new slip to go along with my new dress!

I guess as the seasons change, we are also looking to change colors with them.
