Bunnies For Easter?

I have wondered why one of the symbols for Easter is the bunny. The theory I have heard is that bunnies (and eggs) represent a new beginning, and rebirth. But we have a better symbol than that in our family - our new grandnephew, Sutter Paul.



8 pounds, 12 ounces - a whopper. He lives in San Francisco with his parents. Welcome to the family!!!

I have a friend who never got an Easter basket because they are Jewish. (go figure). So I tried to make a Passover themed basket, but it didn't exactly go as expected. Here are the ingredients:



A lemon pie, some chocolate donuts, some chocolate coins, a chocolate duck, and some jellybeans in sports themed eggs. The only thing I could get that was at all related to the Jewish faith is a blue basket. I know that blue is a Hanukah color, but I tried!!



Here's the finished product - I hope they will enjoy it anyway!!!





Chag Semeach to all!!!

More importantly, what am I wearing today?




I have on a vintage silk midi skirt, with a Romeo and Juliet Couture embellished T shirt. Let's get a better look at the beading on the T shirt.



The color can best be described as hematite. So, I wore a hematite necklace, of course.



The midi skirt is a riot of color and pattern. You can see that here.



I also wore brown pumps with cork soles, and a brown braided belt.



On my left arm, a silver Brighton bracelet, and an iron cross ring.



On my right arm, another silver bangle and a faux blue stone ring that is so gaudy that it's awesome!!



Wanna know what else is awesome?? Elli, in her football jersey.



Apparently, she is number 18 on the team.


And the "Star". Hopefully, she will live for 18 years - sometimes Chihuahuas do that.

Onto the links!!! Of course, sweet beautiful Alice at www.happinessatmidlife.com for Throwback Thursday - this week, I actually gave it some thought - this skirt is a 70s throwback!!. And then, one linkup that I haven't joined in a looonnnggg time - Tara at www.mixmatchfashion.com. Tara specializes in work wear, but since she's on Spring Break, we can link anything!!! But I stuck with work wear (since I have to work, unlike lucky Tara). Have a great day!!!
