  1. So many pretty things, Marie. Love the tea cozies and the boiled egg cozy with the bee. The sun is shinning here but it is very cold. We are going back into lockdown tomorrow. Have you had your vaccine yet? I'm trying to make an appt. for us. Love and hugs, Elaine

    1. No vaccine for me yet. Not in the right age category, but even those who are are having trouble getting appointments. WE don't have a family Doctor either. My dad got his letter a while back and still no appointment. Love and hugs. Stay safe and stay healthy! xoxo

  6. Happy Easter to you and yours Marie! I hope you enjoy the conference sessions and have lovely Easter moments with your family.
    You always find the most interesting things to look at. I especially love all the crocheted items of course.
    The scones look yummy!
    Plants that repel Mosquitos is a great one.
    I really like the Little Women paper dolls. I don't see children play with paper dolls much; but I loved them growing up.
    Blessings and hugs!

  7. Yes they taste the same, there just flat instead of egg shaped.
    Yours look more Easter and mine look more Spring, not Eastery, but I love all m&m's!
