Easter Egg Cards + A Vegetarian Easter Surprise!

Happy Easter everyone!

It has been a while since I gave away a freebie so I thought it would be nice to give you guys some treat for the upcoming Easter celebration. :)

If you’re tired of preparing Easter Eggs for your Easter Egg Hunt, you might want to make things a little different by giving them egg-shaped cards.

Instead of hiding real eggs, this year you can try hiding Easter Egg cards with little love notes written on the inside for your kids, husband/wife, or even friends to find. When I was a kid, I often wondered what to do with the eggs I find during the hunt. I never really liked eating eggs alone as I like them prepared together with some other ingredients as in a cake. I mean, who wouldn’t love cake??!! So anyway, I never really enjoyed Easter Egg Hunt because once when I asked my Aunt what I should do with the eggs I found, she told me that I am supposed to eat all of them for good luck. Blech!!!

So being an ovo-lacto vegetarian (who does not eat eggs ALONE lol), I will be making egg cards with my little love notes and spreading them around the house for my family to find. Or maybe inside the cards I can write something like: “You win an hour’s worth of massage from me”. teehee.

This sounds fun! As I write this, I am brainstorming the messages I’m going to write on my egg cards. I will definitely show you photos of my messages and where I will hide some of them but right now I still can’t because, believe it or not, my husband Mr. Snuggles is my no. 1 blog fan and so he earnestly reads my posts and this will let him into some of my surprise notes. teehee. :)

When I made the printable cards, I though about having a vegan take on the Easter Egg Hunt. And so I made this for all vegans out there and all those who’d like a funnier take on the egg hunt this Easter:

Egg-plant, get it? :P

I think it would also be nice if the Easter bunny held an eggplant instead of an egg. Like this:

Cute right? :) Besides, bunnies are vegetarians so the eggplant makes better sense than an egg. :) LOL

Oh, by the way, here are the download links for the Easter Egg and Eggplant Cards! Enjoy!

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Happy LOVE day to all of you! :)

So, do you have plans already on how you’re going to spend this day with your loved ones? :)

Call me old-fashioned but nothing beats writing a sweet, love letter to your special someone. Perhaps Mr. Snuggles and I share this same quirky feeling because yesterday, he asked me if we can both write each other a love letter. teehee. He must have thought that I would not be writing him one so he really had to let me know (very subtly, mind you) that he’s writing me love letter and that he would also like to receive one. teehee. So cute! :D

Anyway, I just wanted to share with you this little love quote I made. This is exactly what I feel about love. :)

You can download it just by clicking the image. You can save it on your computer, resize it on whatever digital imaging software you have or even Word and then print and frame. :) So you’ll always be reminded of love and where it can be found.

If you need a bigger file, let me know and I can send you one. :)

Happy hearts’  day! Remember to spend the day loving everything and everyone! :)

Happy New Year!

I wish you an auspicious year filled with love, peace and joy! :)

When I woke up yesterday morning, I suddenly realized that the New Year is as beautiful and exciting as the next moment. We have always celebrated the turn of the year but not the turn of the moment. We act as if we are only given one chance in a year to make resolutions, to change or to act. As if we are waiting for the opportunity to start anew, begin with a new page, a new chapter without knowing that we are given just that — every moment and every second. :)

We miss celebrating that because we forget to live in the moment. By living in the golden present we realize that NOW is the only time we have and we are being given the perfect opportunity NOW to do whatever we want, to become whoever we ought to be and to be wherever we should be.

I hope the New Year will remind you that every moment should be celebrated with zeal, gratefulness and love just like how you celebrate every turn of the year, century or decade because they all hold an equal amount of opportunity. :)

May 2011 bring you prosperity and creativity!
