Even if you don't celebrate Easter, the shops are full of cute spring things, aren't they? Yesterday I saw cakes with tiny chocolate eggs decorating the top edges and was SO tempted.
Plus, a lot of us got an extra day off for a long weekend. I feel justified marking the day in Hug form, even if all I've got is a repurposed pic I took two years ago of my cute animal story collection.
With a side of spring-themed sock yarn I keep on display as a yarny ice cream sundae, naturally.
I hope you're able to enjoy this magical time with more readiness than I have: my living room still looks like Winter Cosy, and I still have a full roster of lobsters and highland sheep on the mantel crowding the space where I would normally put cute pastel dishes full of foil-wrapped eggs. That's today's job, along with the making of a hearty chicken soup with turmeric and pearled couscous, for reasons I'm not entirely sure about. People wanted it, I think was the main one.
In other news, I'm officially onto the next stage with the manuscript I've been thinking about and writing and revising for the last year and a half or so, and trying to put the ol' schedule back into some semblance of work/life balance. I'm hoping to re-incorporate sewing and painting or at the very least, sock repair. To that end: I am gonna take next weekend off from posting a Hug to kinda breathe and think about where to carve out the necessary work space.
Wish me luck, and I wish you the very pleasantest of holiday weekends whether or not it includes soup. Thanks so much for spending a bit of it with me.
See you April 18th - take care till then and fingers crossed you have some nice days over the time!
