Happy Easter


Traditionally on Sunday we look for colorful Easter eggs... and sweets are hidden outside in nature for the children.

Tomorrow the thermometer should reach 20 degrees plus sunshine. The ice cream parlors open. I've decided not to buy an ice cream machine for now, but to enjoy ice cream in selected ice cream parlors... and we have some good ones all around - unfortunately not quite as good as in Italy :-))) Eating ice cream in Italy - you know???


This is Kathy Post's seal - nice!

This beautiful hummingbird fluttered into my house from dear Kathy... you can imagine how happy I was. Especially because I will never see the beauty of the hummingbird in my home.


The hummingbird for me - thank you very much, dear Kathy

And yes, spring is the time for plans and projects... I have new and old projects ready and will show them in the next post... and that's a work in progress.





the first bees, bumblebees and butterflies can be found

 

I bought a beautiful bouquet of Levkojen for myself, they smell delicious and shine in beautiful red tones.



A wonderful Easter to everyone in the blog group. May joy and happiness accompany you.

  1. A real hummingbird in Norway would create a sensation! I didn’t realize you have such a passion for ice cream, Viola. It’s something we hardly ever eat; once in a while, generally when on vacation, but never at home. Hugs - David

  2. Hej Viola!
    Så vacker färg på Lövkojan. Vi brukade gömma ägg inomhus, för man kan inte lite på att det är varmt ute vid Påsk.
    Önskar dig en riktigt Glad Påsk !
    Kram Marika

  4. Good morning Viola, Lovely blog post-and beautiful Easter egg. I have fond memories when a child we would grab out baskets and hunt for the eggs. They were fun to color and decorate too.
    Lovely flowers, I thought you would enjoy the hummingbird and the dragonfly wax seal. I need to look for a hummingbird seal we really enjoy them-they should be migrating back to us in a couple weeks.
    We love ice cream too-nice you have good places to visit for an ice cream out. Happy Easter

  5. With spring comes hope and promise! I enjoy looking for buds emerging from the ground and watching for new born birds and wildlife. Happy Easter!

  6. It looks like spring is coming on strong there! In another 2 months we will be enjoying the first of the hummingbirds here. I truly enjoy their antics.

    We used to hide Easter eggs for the grandchildren in the pasture. We used plastic eggs that were brightly colored with coins in them. The kids loved running around and finding the eggs.

    Enjoy!

  7. Happy Easter! We get hummingbirds but not a lot, so they're a real treat to see, darting about.

  9. Sending you very happy Easter greetings, Viola. What a beautiful post, filled with color and joy. I love those blooms and it's fun to know you will have a warm, bright Easter. I'll miss our egg hunt this year (as I mentioned in my post) but we'll do it later, just because it is fun tradition!

    Oh, your bouquet of Stock or Matthiola incana is so lovely! Enjoy its fragrance.
    The hummingbirds are visiting our hummingbird feeder for the 2nd week now. They are such a joy to watch.

  18. For et nydelig påskeegg, Viola!
    I Norge er det ikke påskeharen, men påskekyllingen som er den viktigste dekorasjonen. Iallfall var det slik da jeg vokste opp. Men det kan hende at påskeharen har gjort sitt inntog også der etter hvert.
    Det er så kjekt å ha kontakt med deg igjen etter flere år. Jeg er glad for at du du fant meg.
    God påske til deg!

    Jeg må si at jeg misunner deg 20 varmegrader! Det var en vakker gave du fikk. Dessverre så kan jeg heller ikke se kolibri her i Norge.
    God påske!

  23. Liebe Viola, ich wünsche dir und deinen Lieben ein frohes und gesegnetes Osterfest!
    Das bemalte Ei mit den Ornamenten ist wunderschön!
    Auch hier im Bayrischen Wald ist es aktuell sehr warm geworden.
    Leckeres Eis in Italien kenne ich aus meiner frühsten Kindheit! Nichts schmeckt besser!

  28. You've got 20°C forecasted for Easter? I am envious!
    I'm not a big fan of ice cream - although I used to be when I was younger - but I bought myself a big box of mini chocolate eggs to enjoy :-)
    How gorgeous is that hummingbird seal!
    Happy Easter to you and your family, Viola. Sending hugs! xxx

  30. How beautiful the bouquet of stock is - I love that scent, and it's a wonderful colour. Hummingbirds flit about our garden almost every day. They are such beautiful creatures. The seal on the letter Kathy sent is lovely. Wishing you Easter joy, dear Viola.
