I helped make a wee egg hunt for the kids this morning - laid printed bunny paw prints for them to follow through the house to a nest of dyed eggs, and chocolate ones too!
And I pushed Annie a bit far with the Easter bread - she asked whether a 2-braid spiral or a 3-braid plait would be best, and when I suggested a 4-braid French Plait - she practically chucked the dough at me and said "get on with it big bro..!"
So, here are some pics of my bread - big one the 4-braid, the wee one a 3-braid plait. First time I've made an Easter bread. Also a couple of my ubiquitous Snoopy doodle on an egg...
Happy Easter to you all!

Not too bad for a first attempt...
Had to include this picture of their cat - Yeti who has 26 toes! And the same number of claws...
"don't mess with me - I have double-opposable claws mate..."
A couple of added pictures from this afternoon - harvesting corn from Annie and Hamish's garden, which we will have for our tea:
Picked...

...and a huge bowl of corn is ready for tea!
