what's cooking in the doll house

Spring brings warmer days, sunshine and plenty of sweet green grass

for my little hens to nibble and they're loving it.

Each morning they thank me for letting them wander our farm with

more lovely eggs than we can possibly ever use ourselves.

I'd leave them on my neighbor's doorstep, but they all have the same

wonderful over abundance of lovely fresh eggs.

What to do?

Spring makes me think of daffodils and the scent of lemon thyme

and wonderfully buttery crusted and "bite-into-a-fresh-lemon"

Lemon Curd Tarts.

It uses plenty of eggs...

the first time I made it, I had to make another batch...it was so good that by the time

I was finished "tasting" it, it was all gone.

It's very easy to make, you just need eggs, butter,sugar & fresh lemons, lots of them.

I dare you not to eat most of your first batch!

another lovely thing that's cooking

is that my work table in the doll house is filled with piles of

old fabrics, thread and sweet spring trimmings~

getting these and other little dolly dumplings ready for spring

they'll be making their own Easter baskets and coloring eggs soon...

and I hope to keep them out of the Lemon Tarts.

They each seem to have their own little spoons tucked into their pockets

under their skirts.
