@ Purple, lavender, lilac, violet, amethyst... "Tess, just take a look all around you and breathe deeply! Get that good fresh air in your lungs! Does it get any better than this?" asked Lulu, who had just met Tess at this Exploring Easter image. Purple, lavender, lilac, violet, amethyst... Purple is a particular color. Many love it; and many can't stand it. Throw me in the group that loves this perfect pigment. It can be deep. it can be playful, rich, and childish. It is best known for being royal. The bravest and strongest don this tone. As do many fetching flowers. Shades of purple express the joy, happiness, and significance of Easter. Hope yours is full of beautiful moments!
While exploring Easter, you met Tess.

@ Blank Canvas? “What was that flower called, that we passed earlier?” asked Lulu. “Er—I only know the Latin name for it,” said Choose a name and hastily changed the subject. Blank Canvas? Is there a quote waiting to be written here? In what medium? What color? In a very dark brown pastel, I would copy this quote: It is spring again. The earth is like a child that knows poems by heart. Rainer Maria Rilke
While exploring Easter, you met Choose a name.
Lulu shook paws with Choose a name the Tabby Cat. They both received one silver mole!

@ Lilacs! Lulu and Heidi were so rapt gazing at the image before them that they almost forgot to shake paws before moving on to the next stage! Lilacs! How can mere words describe lilacs? They would need to be precious and pop, one after another, creating a delightful display like soft little flowers contrasted by deep green leaves. No, that isn't possible. One photo cannot capture the lilac's appeal, unless it came to life in explosions of sweetness. And, a movie will not pass on the scent of pale purple perfume sent through a Spring breeze. Your eyes must gaze upon this glorious gorgeousness, and watch it bloom. Stand near by and breathe deeply to collect its bouquet into your own being. That is the only way I know to appreciate the essence of this stunning simple gift completely.
While exploring Easter, you met Heidi.

@ A Bench in The Woods Sebastian was hailed by Lulu, who had also just arrived on the scene. “What a great picture, Sebastian!” said Lulu. “I could stay here for hours!” A Bench in The Woods Tired on a trail or feeling like sitting down and taking it all in? A bench in the woods is your answer. Usually, they are located with a scenic view: an overlook or a pond. Sometimes, you'll find a bench in the woods at spots after the trail had just been a challenge. Maybe some critters will cross your path or sing from the branches above. Maybe you'll see something familiar in a whole new way. Resting on a bench in the woods is a really good idea.

Lulu shook paws with Sebastian the Bashful Badger. They both received one silver mole!
@ An Individual “What was that flower called, that we passed earlier?” asked Lulu. “Er—I only know the Latin name for it,” said Dong Dong and hastily changed the subject. An Individual HAROLD: I don’t know. One of these maybe? MAUDE: Why do you say that? HAROLD: Because they are all alike. MAUDE: Oooh, but they are not. Look. See – some are smaller, some are fatter, some grow to the left, some to the right, some even have lost some petals – all kinds of observable differences. You see, Harold, I feel that much of the world’s sorrow comes from people who are this, and allow themselves to be treated as that… Each person is different, never existed before and never to exist again. Just like this daisy – an individual… from the movie, Harold and Maude

@ Daffodils Lulu was in a hurry to move along and shake some more paws, but lily monet decided to stay where she was for a while, and sketch the image for this week's Art Challenge! Daffodils Some of Spring's earliest bloomers are daffodils. So yellow and bright, they draw attention to themselves. That's why they belong to the genus, Narcissus (the hunter who fell in love with his own reflection in Greek myth.) Daffodils are as sturdy and strong as they are beautiful and bright. Their shape is unique among the flower family, but grow in bunches generating a greater impact of their individuality.

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit

Foil-covered Chocolate Eggs Why wrap this sweet treat in foil? I'd appreciate its succulence just the same if it fell freely into my hand unencumbered in shiny colors. I'll admit the time it takes to peel away its prison heightens my anticipation, but I don't eat chocolate to be stimulated in any way other then letting the creamy deliciousness melt on my tongue.
