Easter, Munich style


Some things about Easter are the same here in Munich as in the States. People hang painted eggs on trees. There are chocolate Easter bunnies everywhere. I get the impression that Germans don't have a tradition of dying Easter eggs with their children. Instead, pre-colored eggs were sold everywhere. I took this picture at the ViktualienMarkt. Also, another thing that I noticed was different is that Germans don't eat jellybeans. And, besides baby chicks and bunnies, they have frogs as Easter mascots too. Anyhow, we had a nice day, the weather was beautiful. I planted flowers in pots I found in our "basement," worked on a quilt, went for a bike ride with Rob, and made delicious chewy chocolate cookies, and ate dinner on the patio.
