~ Eggs-actly ~

 Rain, rain.....

 gentle but cold, wonderful rain.

much needed, since our Winter was not really snow-full.

a good day to clean this old farmhouse,

& decorate for Easter {Eostra/Ostara} a bit ~

I have a small white basket filled with beautiful paper mache eggs

that were gifted to me by a sweet friend that visited us here on the farm from far away Canada ~

 

so vintage & sweet!

 I'll have to get more of my decor out

as Hannah will be coming home for the holiday dinner...

Baked Ham

Asparagus with lemon sauce

Red Beet Eggs

Mashed Potatoes

Spinach Salad

Sweet Rolls

&

Ricotta Pie for dessert

yum!

 Progress on Wool Witch ~

and after I am finished tidying up the farmhouse I will

pull more loops on her...

I finished hooking the sheep,

the strange plant to her right and some of the ground beneath them ~

you can see the conjoined words 'wool/witch' to their left, 

and I think they will be hooked with a wool very close in value 

to the background wool behind her and the sheep.

I like when things are 'hidden' in a rug, especially words.

but we'll see...

the strange looking flower came about 

when I was hooking with the mustard wool, 

then looked down into my wool pile 

and saw the mustard wool right next to the black reversible wool

that I used for her hat & shoes...

I like it.

Well off I go then ~ 

orders to be processed and shipped, 

a farmhouse full of wool dust needing to be cleaned,

and a hook waiting to be held and warmed up again.

have a beautiful, rainy day my friends!

Blessings from the Farm
