A 3 day long Easter holiday brought me some warm moments with my family
and friends, but also showered with so much snow that I've joked it's
more of a Chreaster time than Easter. A huge army of snowmen rolled up
all over the town and the neighborhood looked festive but more
appropriate for Christmas time, but that's Easter 2013 for you ;)

Fingers crossed still optimistically hoping the SPRING is just around
the corner. And if some one spots it, please oh please stop pouring it
some good beer or it will never come.
On a side note, in Lithuania
we have a tradition of paining eggs for Easter. Right before the Easter
there was this show on the radio and people called in to share their
favorite methods of egg painting. One of them caught the attention of my
colleagues, so off they went to hunt for some natural silk and tried to
paint eggs with silk. Later they shared pictures of their results, and I
really like them. Maybe I'll try painting eggs with silk too the next
year. Of cause if I can be troubled to do that over the more traditional
and much easier and faster way we use to paint eggs in the family using
some onion skins.
