Postie Carnival
Has March come in like a lion where you live? The weather won’t change much here, but most of you will see winter starting to melt away this month. We’re all anxiously awaiting the arrival of the first day of Spring on March 20th, and Easter will be on March 23rd this year. With that in mind, this edition of the Postie Carnival celebrates this time of renewal and hope. For all of you in colder climates, I hope March goes out like a lamb. I know you’re all looking foraward to warmer days!
Lisa from My Thoughts, Ideas and Ramblings presents a quick and easy recipe for livening up holiday gatherings with Easter Bonnet Cookies. Yum! They’re so pretty you might not want to eat them, though!
Val shared some Easter memories over at I know EVERYTHING - just ask my hubby. She explains why it was once a melancholy time for her family in What Easter makes me think of.
Thinking about March and getting ready for the Carnival had me thinking about Easters when I was a child, so I’ve shared some Easter Memories with you. I’ll be interested in seeing how your family tradtions differ from the ones I’ve dredged up here on skeet’s stuff.
Off-topic:
Laura, who blogs at Laura Williams’ Musings offers some handy tips for using found items around your home in Frugal Friday: Trash or Treasure? We should all print this one out and stick it on the fridge to remind us to re-use and recycle!
Connie of Brain Fogglesshares a special day and some gushy Mom-feelings in Catching Up. Most moms will probably recognize their own feelings as they read Connie’s words!
The next edition of the Postie Carnival will run on April 1st. Watch for an announcement soon as to who will host and what theme has been selected. The link will take you to the Postie Carnival site. Hmmmm! April 1st - someone could have some fun with that!

March roared in like a huge lion in my little bit of paradise. It’s true about the March winds this year. Heh we never worry if we’re going to get April showers. Gotta love English weather.

Aw, Vanda - you should move back across the ocean where you belong. Or maybe out in the middle of the ocean!
