Celebrating Easter

It’s hard to believe Easter has been and gone. Hopefully you had a wonderful time with family and friends. We spent Easter at the beach house and were joined by two of our three children. We enjoyed our little grandsons visit on Saturday. The weather was absolutely perfect. We have received some lovely rain on the farm which has washed away some of the dust that had settled over summer. We have a touch of green in the paddocks which is just lovely.
I have come to the conclusion that I really just love the beautiful soft colours of Easter. The beautiful pastels are just so restful and some of the Easter mantels and tables around blogland have been just amazing. I set a buffet table for a simple lunch with some cute egg shaped plates I bought in the after-Easter-sales. I used blue and yellow so my little grandsons could share in the fun. The plates are melamine so perfect for little people!! I have the same plates in pink and green which I have added to my kitchen dresser but I have too many photos so I will share them next week.

Chocolates and Stilettos



This is a gorgeous calendar my Mum found for me at Christmas. How cool are these pink stilettos? My two most favourite things are shoes and chocolate - I'm sure if I gave up both then I would truly be a millionaire!!



These are my favoutire shoes - I had them when DNo 2 was married last January - I would love to wear them every day but as you can imagine there isn't much call for little beauties like these at the farm house. 




Red shoes are just sooo sexy I think - I can just see myself trotting out in this gorgeous pair. I am sure that if I had a thousand pair of shoes I would still be on the lookout for more - what is it with females and shoes???


My most favourite pair for the summer season here in Australia would just have to be these...



I received this pair from a work colleague at a Christmas party - have you seen anything like these before??
During the Christmas holiday season DNo 1 was home at the farm and we really needed (yes, needed) a chocolate fix and the only ones we had in the house were these - she decided if we just bit off the heels then we would have a wonderful pair of flats - how's that for a crazy idea.
As you can see we decided to keep them whole but I really don't know if I will ever be able to eat them - they are just too cute.
