Chocolate - in large amounts is what is called for this Easter. Normally I try distraction from chocolate with Easter crafts - hollowing and painting eggs, making mini gardens, sowing seed and looking forward to spending more time in the garden. But as we’re still in the depths of winter, despite the hour springing forward the only solution is chocolate. At least it won’t melt this year.
I shall be sowing flowers a riot of them, as the only flowers in my garden at the moment are Yellow - Primoses and Narcissi and Lime green - Euphorbia characais and Helleborus foetidus and argutifolius, and a tiny bit of blue from the anemones. It’s still much too cold to sow anything yet. Potatoes are traditionally sown at Easter, but that’s more because of the moon than the religious festival, so we’re better off waiting until the next full moon (no howling).
