  1. Happy Easter to you all and you’re never too old for an Easter Egg hunt!!! Your table decorations and Easter displays are just lovely. The wonders of tech meant you were all able to ‘hang out’ together.
    Sending much love

  3. Hello Eva, Happy Easter! Your meal looks scrumptious. My mom used to make a similar chicken dish . . could I ask you for your mom's recipe? Your dinner table setting is lovely . . I think I recognize the napkins . . they look nice on the table! Miriam and Flora look pretty in blue. It's wonderful to see them with Jonathan. Everyone looks so handsome and grown up. I also like seeing the nature table photos. They are good inspiration :)

    1. Happy Easter to you as well. I saw that you had a good time in CT. I will translate my mother's recipe and send it to you. Yes, those are your napkins :). Miriam and Flora and Veronika decided to wear the same shade of blue. Veronika has the same dress as Flora and wore it in CA. I have to be careful what I put on my nature table: Leo tries to eat the little chicks . . .

    2. Oh, our crazy cats! Are your little chicks made of wool? Or do you mean marshmallow ones? Either one would not be good for him! When Veronika comes home for the summer you'll have to take a photo of the three of them in their blue dresses! Oh, when you have time for the recipe, that would be wonderful. Include the German with the English, that would be good for me to compare. Thanks so much Eva.

    3. No, they are made out of some synthetic fluff. No, no marshmallow :). True, we should take a picture when she comes. She is only here for two weeks because her next trimester starts in July! Yes, I will send you the German one and type the English underneath :).

    4. Thank you so much Eva!
      Veronika's schedule is so different from most schools.

    5. I know. The president is from Ireland, and I think he is using the Irish system.

    6. It is always hard to explain to other people, even for the students attending. I had to explain the system to the dentist's office. They wanted to schedule an appointment for Veronika, but because of her crazy schedule, they do not have openings until late this fall.
