Not beeing in the mood to celebrating Easter this year,

the loss of my mother-in-law is still

grieving us so

we just had a brunch on the terrace, this morning

I tried to do it a little "sunnier" than usual

a little more joyful.

the weather this morning and also this evening is 

like my mood, greyishblue.

but the time we had brunch the sun came out and warmed

our skin and hearts.

tomorrow is another day, hopefully warmer,

surely better.

I tought bringing flo (husband) and manfred

(father-in-law) on a picnic.

Easter Bunnies

this brilliant idea comes from Manu
and I do thank her so much!
I wasn't in the mood preparing any
Easter gifts I usually do, but these
bunnies was fun to do and to give
:)

step by step here 

I used this recipe of  Fiorella's raisin buns
(super!)

you need:


100ml of milk
80ml of water
170ml of vegetable oil( sunflower)
5gr of fresh yeast
170gr of sugar
3 eggs
peel of one lemon
a pinch of salt
125gr of raisins
550gr of flour

1 egg to brush

mix the liquid, with the yeast, half of the sugar

and all the flour. let raise for 4 hours in a warm place.

then add the eggs, the rest of the sugar, 

the grated lemon peel, the raisins and the pinch of salt.

work for 7-10min and then let raise in the oven (turned off :)

until the next day.

the next day, make buns or these bunnies.

brush with the battered egg and let raise for another 2 hours.

bake in 180° for 20-25min (dipending how big you made them)

I used cloves as eyes and spaghetti as mustaches.

these bunnies were very appreciated as Easter gifts :)
