eggy goodness
We rose early, to the excited squeals of the little one who found mini chocolate eggs scattered on the rug. Then we spent the day painting and hunting them and came home with a big bag of chocolate loot. And I’m wondering how on earth we are going to eat them all. Che and I made raisin bread too – sweetened with two tablespoons of marmalade jam. Highly recommended, the recipe can be found in this fabulous book.
It’s been raining, often pouring, like it does every Easter around these parts. The kettle has boiled a few too many times today and I’m thinking of upping my self-discipline and saying no to another egg – the chocolate is causing reflux and unsettled sleep. Sometimes the sugar just isn’t worth it, although the sweetness….well, you just can’t ever get enough of that.
For sweet blog goodness go visit my friend and neighbour Em at The Beetle Shack.

Had fun catching up on your blog. Haven't been cruising the blogs lately as I decided to take a break…I'm growing a baby too! Couldn't look at a computer screen for weeks. Am pretty excited about this venture into motherhood. Your blog has been a lovely way to help me prepare. Thank you. x
