One.
Did you grow up eating cinnamon and sugar on buttered toast? I did! This week, as I scrolled through Pinterest,
I found a recipe for "the best cinnamon toast ever." It needs a recipe? That intrigued me, so I clicked over, and indeed! This is a twist on the standard cinnamon/sugar toast that looks absolutely amazing. I haven't made it - yet - but if you're in need of easy twists on the classics while you're home with pantry staples, give it a try!

One of our small group friends sent us
this quarantine-themed parody video. It's pretty cute!

I know Easter is TOMORROW, and it may be too late to concoct a plan like this, but did you see this
really cool idea that Tracy left in the comments earlier this week? I'd asked about Easter dinner plans this year, since everyone's day has the chance of looking quite different. She said this: "
I have a group of friends that meet for coffee each week. There are five of us that are single ladies, so one suggested we do an Easter dinner exchange. Each of us would cook one item and dish out four portions for the others in the group, then we'd meet and do the exchange in a parking lot. If restrictions get tighter or people feel uncomfortable, then we'll call it off. But if it goes through, I'll be eating ham, potatoes, dessert, and other sides. I'm bringing asparagus salad, and as a surprise, I made Easter baskets out of scrapbook paper and will color Easter eggs to put inside!"

Any other Anne of Green Gables fans out there besides Julie C? If so, check out this lovely post. It will surely (ha! See what I did there? Surely? Shirley?) make you smile. And if you scroll all the way to the end, you can see that it's a link-up with more chances to smile as you click away!
Five.
Well you won't be able to use every single suggestion on this list as it is presented, thanks to that term we hear every two minutes now (social distancing)! Nevertheless, there are some great ideas on here fro enjoying a cozy kind of spring - hygge style!

Since tomorrow is Easter Sunday, and since these days are difficult, find some peace and hope in the truth of these words written by my blogging friend, Callie.

Did you see the Les Mis parody on quarantine? So funny!!
Thanks for sharing my Easter dinner exchange idea!
I loved that song parody! That girl has a great voice, too!
I used to make cinnamon toast all the time when I was a kid, sometimes without even toasting the bread, which wasn’t actually very good!
Loved that last link with the message about certainty. I am going to send that to my brother and his fiancée in Portland, Oregon. She is an optometrist and has her own practice, which is closed now. She has a lot of decisions to make and is very stressed.
Saturday mornings are my favorite time of the week as I sip coffee and read your blog!
Blessed Easter to you and Ryan and your families!
I just had sugar cinnamon toast last night!!! Yum yum yum

Tamar - I have not! I will check that out!
Tracy - Oh I'm so glad you liked that post! Callie is very thoughtful in her sharing!
Katie - I haven't had it in forever! And now I'm craving it. Of course. LOL!
You need to check out Disney characters in quarantine by Kurt Tocci. It's hilarious :)
I LOVED cinnamon toast this way as a kid. I may have to make some tomorrow just to remind myself of the deliciousness!
I find one thing that I am having a hard time with is that I have so many things I want to get out of our house right now and we just can't -- library books, things to go to the thrift store, coffee bags to be recycled at church -- it's hard to have all this stuff cluttering my house. Ugh. (I read that as a suggestion on the Spring Hygge article and it reminded me how this little thing is annoying right now.)
