Spider Egg

We took some hard boiled eggs to the pizza place down by Newhaven Harbour to decorate whilst waiting for our grub.

I did a rubbish spotty one, The Dog did a pretty decent stripey one and Arlo did a 'spiderman egg' (new obsession alert!). I think his came out pretty good - looked just like a spider web.

After a fairly stressful & frustrating enjoyable tea with both kids acting like absolute nightmares who never get let out into society up, but holding it together (just), we walked back up Craighall Road and rolled our eggs.

Arlo's won! He was delighted.

Arlo (looking at 3 smashed up boiled eggs on the ground): What do we do now then?
Me: Well, go home to bed - it's quite late.
Arlo: Is that Easter finished then?
Me: Yep. That's it.
Arlo: What do we do at Easter again?
Me: We get up, have some nice food, crack open chocolate eggs, decorate boiled eggs, roll them, smash them up.
Arlo: that's it? I like Christmas better.
Me: Yeah. Me too.
