Today is the Vernal Equinox for those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, when day and night are once again equal. I am glad to be at this part of the year where the sun shines a bit longer each day. Bring on the sunshine!

Easter is always the first Sunday after the Equinox, which means it happens very early this year. In fact, this will be the earliest Easter any of us will live to see! Pretty amazing.

I received a newsletter today that explained how to color Easter eggs with natural, plant-derived coloring. It looks like fun! We’re visiting my in-laws this weekend, so I’ve been relegated to the sidelines for this years’ festivities, as Grandma has the whole plan under control (fine by me, since I get to blog instead of packing little plastic eggs with treats and prizes!). As a result, I’m not going to be able to test these methods for myself, but I wanted to share it anyway. Let me know how it works if you try it.

Have a wonderful weekend, however you celebrate this holiday.
