Now that St. Patrick's Day is over, it's time for Easter stuff! Even though our boys are all grown, I still do Easter crafts, cards, and crochet things.. This was an idea I had, using the peep outline I made to cut cookies out with,.. (I traced one out of paper, too.) It's an envelope flip book card? I have no idea what it's called, but someone sent me one and I loved it. I "inked" around the edge of the whole bunny with a marker. I was thinking about adding a sentiment in the middle of the bunny. I kind of like it just like it is, though. I had some Easter paper from last year that I used.
And the envelopes are ones I got from all my aunt's stationery/envelopes. I got some Easter stickers at Meijers for $3. Little peep bunny stickers. I will probably cut out at least one of the bunnies I put on the front, too; to put inside. And who knows what else.
I made some muffins yesterday. They're St. Patrick's Shamrock Muffins. Just kidding. They're chocolate banana muffins. I used six bananas (all I had in the freezer) to make these. I got the recipe from this book. I've had it forever.
These pictures are out of order. Oh well. We went to Frankenmuth, and went to Bronner's. It's the world's largest Christmas store. Yeah. And I got Easter salt and pepper shakers. Well, if they didn't sell Easter stuff then I wouldn't have bought them. Lol. Supposed to be a Christmas store. Anyway. I didn't see anything I wanted Christmas. (Can you believe that? I can't... LoL)
I made an Easter card out of a napkin. I was going to take a picture of the napkins, too. Oh well. I made some muffins yesterday. They're St. Patrick's Shamrock Muffins. Just kidding. They're chocolate banana muffins. I used six bananas (all I had in the freezer) to make these. I got the recipe from this book. I've had it forever.
I took this picture yesterday. I think my Christmas cactus is confused. LoL. Actually, I think it's a Thanksgiving cactus. But when I bought it, it said "Christmas cactus.". You can google the different types of cactuses. ~Anyway~ Mine has been blooming, or had buds on it, since last Thanksgiving! 😕 This cactus has only bloomed once before. It must love the new window I put it in. It's been in a lot of different windows and houses. Well, it's pretty, anyway. I had a piece that fell off, that got flowers on it in the jar I put it in to propagate. I potted that one to give to my Mom, next time she comes up here. This one looks like it is going to have to be repotted soon, too.
