Jeanne, I am really,really sorry to be so late getting here. I always love seeing what you do, and the wonderful things you have to decorate with. I've never seen rustic chicks like those, so perfect for your decor too! That lighted egg sounds so neat with the colors that change! I also love the framed birdhouse picture. Mr and Mrs Bunny are such a cute couple! I remember lusting over those Easter blocks last year and wishing the Hobby Lobby I get to go to had them. Your home is always so welcoming and I'd give anything to live next door and be able to see everything in person. hugs, Karen

Candy... my brain must have been 'Out To Lunch'..I don't know how I missed this table. You always set such great tables with such fabulous finds. Like everyone else - I love your CP and all your cute bunnies and chicks. Your candlesticks always look so impressive w/ea setting. The placemats with the embroidered detailing are lovely and compliment your place settings perfectly and to top it all off, all those cute bunnies and chicks make this such a fun table. jane

RR, they grow so quickly, I want to have pictures so I can remember when I was still the center of the universe for The Princess, and when Bruvver would still climb on my lap and kiss me. I want to remember that "Alfalfa" cowlick Bruvver always has, and Makayla's curls. Gotta take pictures, Maggie will be in college before you can blink! Linda, that cookie cutter is the only thing that will ever get Makayla to eat a carrot, I swear. (grin) Or a rabbit either, for that matter, LOL. Jim, Makayla rides Copenhagen every chance she gets but Bruvver is happiest on a tractor. Or a loader. Or the bulldozer. LOL He loves to go "two tracking" with the Jeep and his sister is happier on horseback. I'm also happier on horseback but when I sold that little old Allis Chalmers C model that Dad and I put together from parts in boxes, I cried. I loved that tractor, even if it did need a new throw-out bearing (which cost $20 for the part cut you had to crack the tractor in half to replace, LOL). Yup, definitely had to make a tractor cookie, even if I didn't have Allis Chalmers orange cookie dough.... Annie

Thanks all! I am glad that they turned out too. Tami, exactly! As long as it's chocolate, the kids won't care! Linnea, I didn't add anything to the chocolate. Just turned up the heat a bit more. I read it somewhere that chocolate's melting point may vary depends on the type and quality of the chocolate. The Cadbury bunnies I used seemed to have a higher melting point than my chocolate wafers and the Callebaut. I wonder if I should have tempered the chocolate because the result was some very soft chocolate that melts in my hand. Annie, good suggestion. I definitely will use them in baking instead for dipping next time. Linda and Lowspark, you're right. I believe the quality of the chocolate greatly affect the outcome. I am not too crazy about white chocolate unless it's Callebaut. I find most white chocolate too sweet and lack cocoa flavor. Speaking of Callebaut, I melted some dark Callebaut to make almond-cranberry bark. They turned out SO good! Al
