here + there

easter feast'ers.
sunshine + swings.
...it's a (red tailed hawk?)... bird!
Chillin' with my Peeps!
(yesterday's) bird mobile fabrics.
vintage chairs + flowers blooming.
peach pie... disaster.

Another week, another peek at the moments that filled our nest here.
Hmm.. many of this shots are stories in themselves... where to start?!
----------
* It was a deliciously delightful Easter weekend, spent with all our families/siblings/church.  We celebrated my big brother's birthday as well as my Ben's (his is tomorrow!).  So, lots of fun!

* We soaked in the sunshine while we could (now that it's bitter as winter out there again)!
While at our favourite park I espied that gorgeous hawk feasting in the trees overhead... I felt like a real National Geographic photographer, despite lacking a zoom lens.

* I've still been baking + crafting lots lately it seems... due to the trapped stay at home condition we find ourselves in.  Yes, it's too frigid to walk the kids far.. and of course, they're fighting more head colds again.

* Oh, and yes, that peach pie - despite it's lovely looks - tasted like rat poison.
Turns out I probably should have added lots more sugar than just a 'sprinkle'... since they were frozen peaches... not the summer sweet ripe ones.  Gah!  Sooo that was a miserable flop of a 'birthday dessert' for my guy and his family.  (Though, I should mention that I did manage to pull off a delicious flour-less chocolate cake - with raspberry drizzle - for our other feast!).  So I'm batting 1/2 in the baking department lately...

Well now, time for me to stop yappin'... I really do like to hear about you, how's the week treating your soul there?

I send you a big warm hug,
<skaaadooosh> (thats what the hug sounds like).
