Hi tvman & The Incouragables (no, I didn't misspell it!) ,
It started off this morning looking like it was going to be another grey day but then the sun broke through and it was a glorious afternoon! I was in the garden planting summer flowering bulbs etc when our daughter came through the side gate into the garden. They live eight doors down but we haven't seen them since we popped round for Ella's 5th birthday on 1 April. Turns out our oldest grandchild Leah (8) has woken in the night crying for the last few nights asking for her Gran & Grandad, she dreamt something had happened to us and our daughter said she was inconsolable. So they played helped in the garden and were so happy! It was terrific to see them!
Yes, Michelle, it is very strange indeed and we all hope next year we will be able to celebrate properly! As I haven't been out, I didn't buy choc eggs but made Crispy Bars and they have gone down a treat! I will attempt to put a photo here but not sure if it will work. Everyone said that was better than an Easter egg. We gave some to our son & family, our daughter & family, our 84 year old neighbour whose husband died three years ago, so is on her own. Another older neighbour round the corner who is also on his own, he is 92 & the bars went down a treat, with old and young alike!
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!! 
This cuts into 20 squares!

Hi Annette
I was thinking no wonder everyone went home happy with one of those until I read that it was cut into 20 pieces!
It looks lovely Annette. My wife made her traditional lemon meringue pie that she has made for decades but this time only 3 of us were eating it, so for the first time ever, there's half of it left for today!

For you, yesterday was such a special day, seeing your grandchildren, I hope little Leah slept better last night and had a much happier dream, maybe that she, her mum and sister, Ella came into your garden and ate cake again 
And the sun shone!
Have a great day with Vince, hope the sun shines today again.

Happy Easter to the Incredibles 
tvman 2 days of lemon meringue pie sounds lovely...I'm no baker but am told it's quite a skill to make a good one. It sounds like there's been a lot of cooking and baking going on.
anndanv so pleased you were able to have that special time with your family. ruthjp also very pleased to hear you're feeling better.
It still all feels surreal, the sunshine and amazing birdsong definitely help. I hope everyone stays well and in as good spirits as possible and that we can all look forward to better times to come.
xx
