German Easter

Easter…

Rebirth, spring time, new life, fresh smells…and oh least I forget chocolate…its everywhere, eggs, rabbits, chickens, lambs.

We went to Wiesbaden a few weekends ago and found the most amazing chocolate shop on Marktstrasse, I walked in and wow; that glorious aroma hung like an invisible curtain…it was like entering Willy Wonks Factory…yes that was one of my favorite films as a child…I still like the idea of finding a magical garden like the one he had….in the mean time I shall just have to indulge in the wondrous German traditions of Easter and chocolate.

Easter markets

I love it, Easter trees, artistic ly blown glass eggs, painted eggs, crocheted eggs, stone and wooden eggs…stunning creative work. Woven grass rabbits, chickens, hedgehogs and birds; scented soaps, honey, glass work and paintings something for everyone.
