Posted on April 22, 2014 | 6 comments

Not sure what to do with all Easter eggs leftover? As many of you, I don’t like to throw food, and it’s time to do something with the remaining decorated eggs before they spoil.

When it comes to deviled eggs, there are hundred variations, i will show u how to do the Lebanese version, it’s a very common dish called eggs and potatoes بيض وبطاطا

Deviled eggs a la Libanaise:

5 hard boiled eggs
2 medium boiled potato
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil
sweet pepper and olives for garnishing.

First start by emptying the eggs.

Then mash together, egg yolk, potatoes, salt and olive oil. Place them in a plastic bag to fill the whites.

Fill all the whites you have. And keep the remaining to eat them with lebanese bread.

Jazz it up with a sprinkle of sweet pepper and olives!

It tastes delicious!

Creative easter eggs – the Farm – DIY

Posted on April 19, 2014 | 6 comments

Today is the saturday of light! the day we prepare the eggs for Easter sunday.

As promised before, this is a step by step to this year eggs.

Nady loves the song “old macdonald had a farm”, this where the idea came from, Cows farm.

With a black marker, draw the cow’s pattern on white hard boiled eggs.

After all is done, stick the cow’s face.

To decorate the farm with couple of flowers, you need to dye with some colors. I always recommend wilton gel color.

Wrap the egg with a green ribbon and stick a flower, very quick and easy.

Nady is extremely happy and excited about the farm, yes it’s Nady’s farm with cows! The cows give us milk, les vaches nous donnent du lait…. Singing 🙂

La ferme de Nady 🙂

Happy Easter to all of you!

buttons made Easter bunny – DIY door hanger

Posted on April 17, 2014 | 2 comments

Easter fun is still on! Crafting with jeddo (grandfather) Maurice! A bunny made with colorful buttons to decorate the front door. We are enjoying every minute with my parents.

Very easy DIY door hanger for easter. All you need is a bunny cut out and buttons. Click here to download a high resolution file.

All you need to do is to fill the bunny tummy with buttons of different sizes and colors. Stick two eyes and a ribbon behind the ears for hanging.

Isn’t it attractive? Nady was fascinated with the colors. I love Easter, a happy and colorful holiday always coinciding with the spring season.

If your baby is still discovering with his mouth, avoid small buttons. Nady tasted all of them 🙂

It’s a fun way to teach the colors to your kid.

Guess who was more happy?!

The door hanger is ready! Easter decoration is almost done, we still have to decorate the eggs on saturday. Don’t miss this year’s special eggs. Wait for the post 🙂
