Temporarily postponing Peter's birthday pictures to blog our Easter preparations. The Easter china gets its time in the sun starting today, which Grace and I, at least, find great fun.
We did the standard egg dyeing, plus one sock that Peter turned pink, and the colors seemed especially pretty, including a couple of eggs my very, very favorite shade of blue. One egg got cracked so there was an uneven number, and the kids compromised by taking turns writing on the last egg with pencil before dyeing it. Grace picked a quiche recipe from a kid cookbook, which seems to have turned out well, and we've got a grownup quiche with suspicious vegetables like.... ... mushrooms as well. Papa has a pastry plan for tomorrow, and so it all seems as it should: nice brunch on the pretty dishes we've used since Grace was a baby, and church on Easter, and an egg hunt with our beautifully dyed eggs afterwards, plus a metric ton of good chocolate. Mmmmm.... resurrection!
