The seats had been haphazardly encased in clear plastic at some point, which had yellowed a bit and was really disgusting. Brent and I cut the plastic off, and now the seats are haphazardly encased in lovely fabric!
Yay for His 'n' Hers chairs! Mine's the one with the strawberry pattern. :) (Hey, Mom--thanks for the manual staplegun!)
I also baked some really cute Easter cookies--sugar cookies, with lemon icing in pastel colors and sprinkles--but forgot to take pictures before my coworkers, Brent, and I ate them all. Bummer!
Brent made a beer can chicken (along with the ham his parents sent us--thaaank yooou!), because he had so much fun with the beer can turkey back at Thanksgiving. It was really, really delicious, but so hard to carve up because...
...it's sitting up. (And it looks rather angry that we shoved a beer can up its rear end, no?)
I also gave myself a headache and a cheekache by blowing out the contents of two eggshells. I only got around to painting one, but it still looked so cute in our little Easter basket!
There it is, front and center! I also made Easter grass by cutting plain old computer paper painted with green watercolor paint (which had been intended for a Christmas project I didn't get around to) into long strips, rolling it up with a quill, and pulling it out to make a spiral. Prettier than the shredded plastic kind!
Now off to pick up some holds at the library and bake some banana bread. It may be Tuesday for you, but it's Saturday for me--hooray for my day off!
