Easter Monday

Welcome to our Easter dinner, we are holding it on Monday one grandson had to work on Easter Sunday, this is also his first time to bring his girlfriend, so here we are.

Using the Serena china and silverware is lady Hamilton, this table we are using is a large oak one from our kitchen, we did a switch as this one has four leaves, but is it heavy.

Easter bunny is sitting in his basket waiting, it had a lot of Easter eggs in it - Cadbury rel ones and I see someone has put these plastic ones in it, hmm never noticed before- wonder where they would have gone.

These are the eggs we decorated last year a grandson and I, they are dorky and really wouldn't want a crafter to see them, but they serve the purpose. This one is grandsons girlfriend she is a sports lover and Loves her shoes she has 19 runners besides high heels. After this picture we added a lacrosse stick to the egg.


Mine has high heels

Franks is a megaphone for auctioning going back 43 years ago he used something similar to this and an airplane 7 years ago or maybe 8 he became a pilot, which was a hard job at his age, had to work hard and he did, also crashed with another pilot and was so lucky to walk away.
Son in law is an electrician so he has a light bulb and a palm tree on the other side, grandsons have hockey sticks, sun glasses, daughter has a paint brush and paint can, everything reflects there likes or hobbies.

My Easter chicks with tomatoes in the centre, they are even shaped like eggs. Another tradition I started and have to keep up, but boy did I have trouble with them today, they are cute though aren't they? And oh yeh I can't get them to stand, so they lay down.

And grandpa is digging in

Finished off with three different pies, apple, lemon meringue and coconut cream and these little eggs my daughter and grandson made, out of marshmallows, Rice Krispies, chocolate chips and coconut and the best a cup of tea.
What a gift to sit back and relax and sip a great cup of tea and a homemade chocolate egg.
The news right now is doing a segment on teas popularity and it is on the rise.
We all knew that didn't we??


I hope everyone had a Happy Easter, God bless,
