Easter Hare

Coloring eggs is my favorite Easter time activity. So I am passing this tradition on to my children.

Usually I just use food color in my cabinet but Sophie asked for the paas egg coloring box at the store.

I think they turned out pretty well.

Here she is making crazy faces while I tried to tell her about the Easter hare that laid eggs and how eggs represent life and the goddess of spring Ostara or sometimes better known as Eastre or Eostre. I like the pagan version of this holiday as we are not religious in a western sense. The stories are fun and meaningful.

I believe the coloring of eggs came from rituals in Persia.

Sophie dumped out all of the coloring solution in the sink and asked me to take a picture of her plastic container mountain.

Here is my VERY messy and scary kitchen. Its amazing how an hour of my family being in here does this.

Here is dinner from Friday. Roasted pork tenderloin.....the other white meat. I hope you have a great day. Last year there was an earthquake in Mexicali. I thought I had a little too much to drink as the room started to sway.
