We're making an easter tree. It should be ready after few more pancake breakfasts. This year we're decorating it with our favorite new egg, the naturally pastel colored Cotswold Legbar eggs. They come in different colors, but mostly this beautiful transluscent bluish green. We've had a few that were pinkish and light green. They are truly a wonder of nature and making Easter eggs out of them is just the proper thing to do, as I always feel awful throwing away those beautiful shells.
London supermarkets are also filled with special chicken breed eggs, which is something that I haven't noticed in either New York or Paris. Anyway, my new business idea is to buy a brood of Old Cotswold Legbar chicks and start a chicken farm in Vermont. I think these would take off pretty well in the States.

Hello Rio – When I look at the photo I see you have been very . . . very . . . careful with the eggs, making sure you don’t drop them on the floor. That was a very good idea, because dropping the raw eggs and breaking their shells would have made a really . . . really big mess. That would not have been funny, right ? Are you helping your Mommy to paint all the eggs in beautiful colours and will you hang them on the Easter Tree ? After you are finished hanging all the eggs on the Easter Tree will you please make a picture and send it to me and Meeme. We would like that very much. Opa
