~ * ~ Easter Blessings ~ * ~










It was a Blessed Easter for us , we had our gathering with family and friends. The kids enjoyed the egg hunt , games and swinging.












Everyone brought covered dishes and ate to much.
















Little Miss Sunshine took time to smell the flowers.
Hope you had a Blessed Easter !
~~ Spring Blessings ~~

Sweet! Thanks for the Dandilion Jelly Link Tip!

I put a link up on my blog to it
and your link to your blog entry about the Violet Jelly.

Do you gather blooms at the hotest part of the day?

I went for a walk where I was going to pick the dandelions and
there was a mower there that had cut the grass.

So, I'll either have to find another spot or wait till everything grows back again.

God Bless You and Yours!!!

Happy Spring!!!

Flassie , I usually pick midday if possible , sometimes it late afternoon , depending on the blooms. Dandelion blooms need to be picked early in the day , they start closing up in the evening.

They'll grow back quickly , just gave them a day or two. I think you need about 2 cups of blooms to make jelly. I will probably make some dandelion jelly next week.
