Easter Snapshots







This year I restrained myself and did not help Meredith decorate her eggs (except for making sure the dye didn't spill too much!). She did this all by herself (note the cracked eggs). Then she pointed to Jesus and said, "A long time ago boys had long hair too."

I made these peanut butter Easter eggs and we put them at the place settings for brunch. They're kinda on the sugary side but still yummy. I need to figure out how to make them more peanut-buttery and a little less sweet.

The girls look so pretty all dressed up! Your eggs look so good!!! I have this really wonderful memory of being invited to a lady's house with Christina, to make these kind of eggs when I was about 10. She had us over and we made dozens and dozens of cream cheese/confect. sugar based eggs - in three flavors -- coconut, peanut butter and maple/walnut! They were dipped in chocolate like yours and I think we decorated the outside too. They were so good, and I've never really seen them since. Incidentally, that was the only time this lady ever had us over. :)
