| I thought it was slightly premature for Woolworths to be selling hot cross buns - but in the warehouse today - they have the first lot of easter eggs in.....sigh |

LOL. And I thought it was a bit premature when the shops here starting putting up Chinese New Year decorations on Boxing Day 
Wish I could get some hot cross buns here though! ------------- SJ Callum - Dec 2008 Daniel - Oct 2010 |

No no no no no!!
I cant be easter yet! Maddi was (supposed to be) an easter baby. That'll mean she'll be a big 1 year old and not my little baby any more 
I think I am going to have to avoid all shops for the next dew months.... -------------

Yep easter is in April this year...Good Friday is the 10th and easter monday is the 13th....Easter follows the cycle of the moon, its the first Sunday after the paschal full moon which is why its either in late march or early april....
I haven't seen any eggs or hot cross buns in the shops yet...but i guess im not really looking, i just go and get what i want and then leave...dont get a chance to look around with the kids..... -------------
