A Busy Weekend
Tomorrow is the big Easter Egg Hunt at the Effingham Public Library. I am baking cupcakes and bringing the apple juice. Oh, and of course the eggs. White eggs, green eggs, and brown eggs. The kids will search for filled eggs around the library, and the eggs I am donating will be for coloring. They even get to make an Easter basket to put them in. I have to make the cupcakes later. I have to think of something fun and creative for the tops. I don’t have any frosting on hand, but I am sure I will come up with something.
I have almost finished the Muriel dress for Thornton Square. I just have to finish putting on the lace and fix the collar. Her birthday is next Thursday, so I will make it on time. I thought for a day or two I wasn’t going to be done on time. No worries.
We started working on the Thornton Square website last night. We have gotten the design up and the categories. Now, I have to work on getting the pictures of the replica clothing and descriptions on there. The descriptions are always the hardest for me.
Sunday will be the day we cut a whole so the first set of chickens can actually free range again. We switched them to a new pen last fall, and they haven’t been out yet this spring. They peer out the windows, longing to scratch in the dirt again. Wait until they meet the cats.
