Easter baking plans

[wiseheart]

I'm not going to indulge in the same baking orgy as at Christmas, but I want to bake at least some cookies - for us as well as for a few selected (and beloved) colleagues. So, planned are the ones beyond:

Little lambs with white chocolate icing:



Nutella bunnies:



"Boiled egg" cookies, with jam filling:



Coconut lambs:



And perhaps, but not certainly, lemon and/or orange chickens and eggs:



This is the plan, conceived on the basis that I need to use up some ingredients before they'd go bad. How much of it will become reality? We'll see, especially if the big flat renovations strikes before Easter. I hope I'll be able to bake at least some of them, and that they'll turn out prettier than on these photos that were taken when I made the cookies for the first time, each.

You're welcome. :) I still owe you for the wonderful Christmas card. Alas, I haven't managed the Christmas routine, which is why I'm doing the Easter one this year.

One of these days I hope to get back to making Christmas cards again, but write now my sister's 60th birthday card is eating up al my crafting time. I'm enjoying it, but I'll be glad when it's done.

Oh, believe me, I know the feeling! I'm in the same shoes with my goddaughter's baby journal and all the other stuff that's coming up in-between. There was a reason why I didn't get around to make Christmas cards!

At least I can post pictures about my baby journal progress and people seem to like them. A lot more success and satisfaction than my writing which is mainly ignored - save for the idiot nitpickers. :(

I've seen the baby journal pics, they seem to be coming along really well. Sorry I haven't been commenting, but I've been dealing with a lot of shoulder and neck pain, which typing aggravates, so I've been restricting my typing to fic writing and answering emails. Even then I have to keep stopping.

It's harsh when the longest reviews we seem to get these days are from people finding fault where there isn't any.

I'm really sorry to hear about your health problems. Get better, soon! *hugs*

Thanks. I think I'm improving, but the damp weather and cold winds have not been helping. I know I have arthritis basically everywhere, but I did not need this. For a week or so I couldn't even sit comfortably.
