@ Pure Peace Lily
Captain Manwaring has just received an unexpected gift; a richly decorated egg! Opening it, he is astonished when the egg fills his mind with a series of themed visions!
2021 Aqua Easter Egg
When your pet receives the magical Aqua Easter Egg, he or she will be taken on a journey to do with RELAXATION at Easter. There will be clean, spacious house interiors, artwork, simple traditional Easter concepts, spring blooms, plus a few quirky features!
Pure Peace Lily
This peace lily in relaxing tones of green and white, is a popular choice in pets' homes and offices alike. It brightens up the space it occupies and it also purifies the air—what more could you ask? They are easy to look after but take care that you don't overwater! And your peace lily may benefit from a brief shower once in a while to clear any dust off its leaves. This plant is interesting because what looks like the white flower is actually a specialised leaf bract that grows in a hooded way over the flowers.

“Time to move on and shake the next paw!” observed Captain Manwaring. Miss Flicka agreed, but said she was going to stay here awhile and admire the scene.
In the Affirmative
"Yes" was a very early entrant to the English language. It was hard at its affirmative work before the 12th century, around the beginning of the Middle English period. The word comes from the Old English gese, meaning may it be so, the "g" of which was pronounced like a "y".

@ Good Egg
Captain Manwaring and Minerva were entranced at reaching this stopping place and eagerly posed for a picture!
Good Egg
Why are eggshells so strong? Not when dropped on the floor, of course, but they do have the power of the dome shape which distributes any weight applied to the top of it to the entire egg. Have you ever seen a building in the shape of a dome? The entire structure supports the weight of the roof. The egg’s dome does the same.

@ Say it with Eggs
“Oh hello, Captain Manwaring!” cried fresh. “Didn’t we bump into each other on the steam train journey a while ago?”
Say it with Eggs
Decorating eggs for Easter is a tradition that dates back to at least the 13th century. One explanation for this custom is that eggs were formerly a forbidden food during the Lenten season, so people would paint and decorate them to mark the end of the period of penance and fasting, then eat them at Easter as a celebration.
