Well friends, I hope you enjoyed the weekend.
We had a wonderful weekend with the family and friends ... Darling daughter and Handsome Son came home so it was great to catch up with them. I am glad that Easter is once a year, ... all the chocolate Easter eggs and treats can make for a sugar overload.
The smell of home baked goodies is wonderful and as my hot cross buns were devoured in a flash I had to bake another batch the next day. The house really did smell divine with the cinnamon and mixed spices wafting from the oven.
Wishing you a wonderful week
hugs
Carolyn
Sounds like a lovely weekend :)
ReplyDeleteHappy April, darling!

Carolyn, I can imagine the awesome smells of your home from reading this post. Omg, it makes me want a chocolate bunny and a hot cross bun.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great time was had by all.
How fun to have both your kids home. Nothing puts a bigger smile on a mother's face than having her kiddos putting about the house.
A happy new week to you!

Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you had a nice Easter and got to spend time with your daughter and son. I also had a blessed Easter with all the family. Can you believe it's April already? Your hot cross buns must have been a hit, as you had to make another batch. You are the first person today to remember April Fools. Hahaha I remembered too. Have a good week, Carolyn.
Much love,

Yes we had not anyone who did april fools of us. It's probably because the children are now adults.

I wish you a lovely April with plenty of sunshine.

Can you believe it's April already? Time is going by way too fast. We had a busy weekend and the rest of the week will probably be the same. Hubby and daughter are on vacation so they have a lot of things planned for us to do. Just wanted to stop by to say hello and wish you a wonderful week. Sounds like you had a wonderful Easter with your kids at home and all the yummy treats...those cross buns look sooo good. One day I will have to give that recipe a try. Sending you a great big hug.
