Happy Easter!

Rather late in the day but I hope you have had a great day and are enjoying an extra long weekend.  We have had family over yesterday and today which has been lovely but I am looking forward to a quiet, relaxing day tomorrow!

Just have a couple of, non-crafty, photos to share with you.


These first two are my little Easter tree display.  I have been collecting the eggs and various other ornaments ever since my brother and sister-in-law lived in Vienna about 10-12 years ago and it is very fashionable in both Austria and Germany to have an Easter display.  It gives me a great deal of pleasure each year and each year a little more gets added!

These are Simnel Cakes which I baked for the first time this year.  There are two as I gave one to my Mum instead of chocolate and the other we kept for ourselves.  I was very pleased with how they looked although I think I slightly over cooked the cakes!  The 11 marzipan balls on the top represent the 11 apostles (not 12 because there isn't one for Judas as he betrayed Jesus!).

Will try and be back with some actural crafting photos very soon.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
