Dish up the Mint

This sweet minty bowl was a gift from the mother! Look at those scallops! It reminds me of melting chocolate mint chip icecream. The bottom is marked with the maker's stamp RRP Co. Roseville, Ohio 308.

Overcome with Good

I adore the hope of Easter in Christ! In moments when things are seemingly hopelessly flustered I praise Jesus for His beautiful truth, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

He has overcome the world!

Happy Easter!

Ah, the art of Easter egg dyeing. 

Yesterday my mom and I sat ourselves down with a PAAS dye kit and over a dozen eggs. We made some:

...bright and cheerful eggs...

 ...rather unappetizing 70s retro eggs (originally brown eggs instead of white)...

 ...springtime eggs (note the scallops and 60s mod floral)...

 ..."I don't exactly know what happened here" eggs...

 ...vibrant colonial eggs (also originally brown eggs)...

...and rustic sunset eggs (with another attempt at scallops)!

However, the true meaning of Easter is much more beautiful:

"I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die." 

-Jesus in John 11:25
