Happy Easter from Tall Tales Headquarters, where I found a favorable ruling from the Kansas Supreme Court along with some chocolate malted eggs in my Easter basket this morning. They went quite well together.
Temperatures are supposed to drop throughout the course of the day so I was also delighted to be able to get an early morning walk in. I sent my siblings a MarcoPolo in which I reminisced about going to church on Easter Sunday in Harrison Arkansas with mom in the early 90's, when all the women wore their best hats, and services ended with a rousing rendition of "Christ the Lord is risen today ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-le-lu-oo-yah". I sang it for them so they could get the complete experience.
A carrot cake for 2 was also made using this recipe except I added raisins and instead of the brown butter cream cheese frosting I used the Pioneer Woman's cream cheese frosting recipe that goes with her red velvet cake because it is so good and never fails to disappoint.
Then I called my friend Mary Joan because I love to surprise her with FaceTime calls when she may have a few hairs out of place. I don't know about you guys, but I am finding it important to FaceTime, MarcoPolo, and/or Zoom regularly with my friends and family.
And just because we are in the midst of a pandemic, I still find it essential to put out some bunnies and make mini flower arrangements.
As soon as I post this I am going on the hunt for an old Easter movie for tonight's viewing. We watched "Meet Me in St. Louis" in the last few years and it was delightful. Chris suggested "Harvey", which I think sounds perfect.
That was good news!
