Anyone else celebrating Orthodox Easter on Sunday? My husband is of Greek descent so this is a huge holiday in our family. Needless to say, it’s also a big fat Greek load of preparations! I enjoy it thoroughly- from the baking, to the painted eggs and especially the liturgies. Being the highest of holidays- it’s also the busiest. So I want to apologize in advance if I don’t make it to your blog this week!
Here are my Easter breads (Tsourekia)- the second batch, I had to throw out the first one after all that hard work, and start from scratch (literally!).
If I have the courage (or the time!) I might bake another batch with some colorful eggs in each center…let’s see.
So keeping it short and sweet and getting you to the Linkup Party before I’m out of here. But first:
My FAVOURITE FASHION DIVA from last week’s linkup is: Nancy of Nancy’s Fashion Style- how gorgeous is she in this dress?!!–
My FAVOURITE BEAUTY DIVA because I’m crazy about this new hairstyle she’s styling: Gail of Is This Mutton
My FAVOURITE READ of last week’s Linkup Party: Color Analysis for Any Age, by Style Yourself Confident Blog. I loved this read so much since it featured one of my favourite bloggers in her trio- Jodie of Jodie’s Touch of Style.
And now…ARE YOU READY, Ladies?!!!!
You are invited to the FABULOUS FRIDAY’S INLINKZ PARTY!
HAPPY EASTER TO ALL THOSE CELEBRATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes! We are! Working on boiling my eggs now. Tomorrow will be the bread and this year I will remember to divide the dough in two for 2 loafs: last year it looked like a turkey. My two friends came earlier this week to make cheese Paska and can’t wait for liturgy tomorrow night. We will go to Birmingham on Monday for their bright Monday Liturgy: I used to go there, my Goddaughter will be there and introduce the boyfriend to me! Happy Pascha! Christ is Risen!
