Doodle Town by Melissa Lomax for April 05, 2021

It never gets “old”, just better.

I loved those panoramic sugar eggs! And , I also got a new Easter bonnet, new spring jacket, dress and shoes.

The family colored eggs a few years, but only hid them in the house once (most of the hidden eggs had been placed in the oven. We were never told why.)

One Easter my mom made the 4 of us white pleated skirts and flowered jackets. She would make us pajamas and robes at Christmas, but those skirts and jackets really stand out in my memory. :)

Thanks for some nice memories

I’d forgotten about the panoramic Easter eggs. That brought back some great memories. Thanks!!

I totally forgot about panorama eggs! Thank you for that memory. I still need to make my pecan nougat eggs … they don’t have them here in Australia :(

So many witchcrafts… I mean, handcrafts (=P)

It brings back fond memories. Thanks, Melissa.

Oh, that brings back good memories. So sweet. Thank you, Lolo. I hope you had a good Easter.

Easter in an egg shell! Very nice!

I also loved those sugar eggs!

Also, we had a lovely older couple who had a HUGE family and they did a massive egg hunt each Easter. After our boys were old enough they were kind enough to include them. WHAT fun that was!!! (We haven’t been able to go there for the past two celebrations due to COVID, but we certainly look forward to returning!). I have to say, I didn’t need to slow down my searching due to my age- Those eggs were HARD to find sometimes!!! (HAHAHAHAHAHA!) SUCH a wonderful strip today, Melissa! Thank you!

You outdid yourself on this one, Melissa. It’s adorable. I always thought it was just wrong when peeps started coming in colors other than yellow! Lol

And even better is finding those chocolate Easter bunnies that didn’t get found on Easter.

I remember one company made 6 packs of cream filled eggs, with one each of butter cream, chocolate butter cream, cherry vanilla, maple, coconut and mixed fruit. I didn’t like the coconut or maple, so my mom would take those. She didn’t like the cherry vanilla or mixed fruit, so I’d take those. We’d split the butter cream and chocolate butter cream.

mmmmmm peeps!
