Off Hunting Easter Eggs….
Happy Easter!
Cats have to be in the bible somewhere!
May all your peeps be fresh and your jelly beans red.

I am sure they are–just a misunderstanding!
Peeps!!

Happy Easter.
I don’t have much of a chance to leave a comment during the week but loving catching up on your daily updates on the weekend. Thank you.
Sal
Glad you stop by where ever you get a chance and that you enjoy the updates.
Happy Easter!
May your day be warm,
and your sky be sunny;
Your eggs be colourful,
and your chocolate yummy!
What a lovely poem! And so tasty!
Thanks for dropping by Odd.

Happy Easter, Katybeth and Cole! Loved your story of the bunny cake — hang on to those molds, they’re probably valuable antiques by now! Wonder why the Bible doesn’t mention cats — maybe the ancients saw them as the sneaky beings they are!!
Not a cat lover? I had to really back pedal when I posted El Morno on facebook today–told everyone I was sure it was just a misunderstanding. Listen, after I post the story of this years cake a little later today–nobody will ever steal my bunny model. Talk about evil!!
I hope both of your days
8) was a whole lot easier than baking that bunny cake. You are a very determined person. Spring is just wonderful. Hope you enjoy many many great days.
Thanks Kathy. Hope your Easter was filled with joy and chocolate bunnies.

I’d forgotten Shirley MacLaine and Barbra Streisand had the same birthday…
Happy Easter, Katybeth!
Hugs,
Wendy
I never even knew they shared the same birthday until I wrote El Morno…but I like both ladies a lot!
