Spring Snow

Generally, I am not a fan of Winter. I don't like the inconvenience of snow. Although I do love some things about Winter. I love Christmas, winter photography, and fireplaces.

I am generally a fan of Spring because I know that Summer is only a few months away.

One thing I do not enjoy AT ALL is a huge blizzard in the middle of Spring!

All the snow was gone, it was nice and sunny and warm, you could see the buds on the trees, we had an Easter Egg Hunt outside... and then all of a sudden, we had a blizzard that knocked out the power for almost a full day and the internet for 3 days! The snow came on Tuesday night and we STILL have a yard full of it.

It did allow for some cute pictures though... so I guess it wasn't 100% horrible.

Steve has started an advertising business called Day Media Inc. He recently etched the logo onto a glass! It turned out really great!

Easter!

Since I can't be home for the traditional Easter egg hunt with my family, I decided to make my own Easter eggs!

I made a batch last week as a test. I decided they were a bit too big and that I am, for some reason, unable to smoothly dip things in chocolate. I did a bit of research and learned about tempering chocolate which I'll probably try next time.

I bought some foil candy wrappers at Bulk Barn and I think they look CUTE!

I'll be bringing them with me to Steve's family's house this weekend.

Steve loves them! I love them too, but I made this batch bite-sized because they're quite sweet.

Here's the recipe:
