essentials that grandparents provide in

abundance. They give unconditional love,

kindness, patience, humor,
comfort, lessons in life.

And, most importantly, cookies.

Daily Picture

Egg safety
Keep eggs in the refrigerator. After decorating eggs for Easter,

return them to the refrigerator as soon as possible. If using these
eggs for an Easter Egg Hunt keep them refrigerated until the hunt to avoid spoilage.

After the hunt, dispose of any cracked eggs and return eggs (unless you're gonna eat 'em)

to the refrigerator. Do not leave them out for more than two hours.

Hard-cooked eggs with the shells left in tact will keep about 1 week in the refrigerator.
