Firstly, Happy Easter! I hope you are having a peaceful time and enjoying the sunshine. Here are some bunnies and some lovely daffs (my favourite) which I hope will make you smile.
Well, Oliver couldn't quite believe his luck this morning when he was allowed...no.. positively encouraged to eat chocolate easter eggs for breakfast. Although we did pay for that rather reckless decision about an hour later when he became the Sugar Monster. Thankfully I managed to locate Wallace and Gromit and 20 minutes later the sugar tide inside him had quelled and he returned to being a relatively normal (?) 2 year old.
I've been meaning to plant my sweetpea seeds since last October - no - really! I always get them planted early so they flower in May and I just don't know where the time has gone. I also had the task of sorting out my chaotic greenhouse --(I'm sure I left a greenhouse in the garden here somewhere....) and I had promised myself that I would tidy it up before making any more mess. I guess that was the fly in the ointment which is why I only got round to doing it today.
So, 6 packets of sweet peas and about 100 toilet rolls later, Oliver and I managed to get most of the seeds and some of the soil in the right place and fingers crossed they should be poking their little pea shoot heads up soon. I'll pop a picture on the blog then as they just look like bog rolls filled with mud and aren't very Easter-ish or particularly inspiring. The pictures on the empty seed packets are nice though - so here you go.....
I've been making a new non-Easter amigurumi creature and I'll post more about him once he's all sewn together. He's a bit different to other bunnies and chick and will take longer to crochet but he's worth the effort I promise! More soon...
