Yes, I rock! I am the Queen of the Paas Ontbijt or for you non-Dutchies, that means Easter Breakfast. This year yours truly, the Outcast-Expat-Yoga-Pants-Wearing Mama was asked to make stuffed eggs for my daughter's class. Look at these eggs! And I am the only working mother in the class! After 12 hours of working and commuting, I came home and made these stuffed eggs. I agree, they look like they are on Crack but I was cutting up the pickles at 10pm with only one eye opened.
The kids loved them and I am now the reigning teachers' pet! I arrogantly basked in the limelight while the Albert Hein Supermarket-Easter-treat buying-In-crowd Mamas scowled from the corner. I can now hold my once left-out head up high walking across the school yard, I am down with the teachers, I am Teacher's Pet, hear me ROAR!
And hello, I may not brush my hair very often and dress like I'm always on my way to the gym yet obviously never get there, but watch out all you Fashion Show Barbie Mamas on the schoolplein, I'm a creative chick!
Happy Easter!!
Love the story, and all that effort just to make the kids smile, Double WOW WOW

Thanks so much Miss Rachel! It WAS so worth it seeing the kids smile! Have a great weekend!
DeleteThis morning I've been laughing out loud while reading your blog to my Dutch husband. And it was going great until I showed him the picture of your stuffed eggs. Yeah, now it looks like we'll be making those to bring to Easter with my family . What was I thinking??? Anyways, I love your blog!!

Thanks Melissa! Ohhh I am so sorry you have to make the eggs, I was suppose to make a batch for the family, but I got lucky and will make cake pops instead (even though I have never made them before.)Don't worry, I won't post the cake pops haaa! Plus I am not much of a baker. Happy Easter and hope you are the star tomorrow at the family dinner! xCat : )
DeleteThese are so cute! I saw them on Pinterest but was too chicken to attempt them. Next year I'll have to give them a try :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sara Louise! I found even sweeter ones, bunny eggs!
