@ Smooth-Lipped Spider Orchid
Yellow Daisy Egg My pets are in awe of these beautiful eggs—they would love to try to paint their own one year. Easter and spring are times of joy as the earth awakens, plants are pushing forth from the soil, and the days are becoming warmer. Many baby animals are born in the spring, and life is burgeoning. May these eggs bring you joy and be a reminder of the earth renewing itself.

@ Football Meatpies Kangaroos and Holden Cars Spoty and Tootsie were trying to decide which flavour of Golden Boronia Nougat to buy. It was a difficult choice!
