Calla lilies, eggs and Easter bread
Eggs, lilies and Easter bread are part of the celebration of Easter.
Calla lilies are associated with the resurrection of Christ, as they bloom around Easter and have a shape resembling a trumpet, to remind Christians of the celebration of the day.
When I see calla lilies I can't help but hear Katherine Hepburn's famous line from the 1937 film Stage Door. "The calla lilies are in bloom again"
These were brown eggs, dyed with turmeric, a bit of glitter powder, and polished with oil to make them look festive!
This isn't a traditional Easter bread that is generally made with white flour and yeast.
These breads were made with an equal amount of low fat cottage cheese, cornmeal and oat flour. Egg yolks and whipped egg whites were added separately, Then baking powder, vanilla, raisins, walnuts and orange zest.
Only the topping was traditional, made of powdered sugar, lemon juice and egg white. That added some sweetness, since the dough didn't have any sugar in it.
It was a lovely Easter! My son and I watched the F1 race, texting back and forth, while my daughter in law took a walk to the lake with her camera. More photos to come tomorrow! Even though we were not all together, sending photos and texting is the next best thing!

That last photo with brown bread filled with raisins seems quite delicious.
It's very tasty! ❤️
It's wonderful to share with the family in some way.
By the way, seeing those sweets really made me hungry!
All made with love. It's a beautiful celebration. Unfortunately, in my country it's not the same. I missed those good moments in family for a holiday celebration. So tomorrow, more cool pics of nature, I guess
You can choose to celebrate any day in whatever way you want! I love starting new family traditions!
I need to get started on today's nature post!
Sure. Don't procrastinate. Let's go go go 🏃➡️

I'm letting you know, my friend, you have a duplicate comment.
Your way of celebrating Easter is cool accompanied by a natural touch that is full of meaning and of course full of love. Simple egg decoration but looks elegant. The cake makes me drool🤤
There are no small children in the family now, so all the Easter bunny/egg hunt traditions have shifted to more adult celebrations!
Lovely Easter table 👍 that bread looks delicious. Good you had some family even if everyone couldn’t be together.
It was a good day! Easter and spring time go together, don't they?
Happy Easter 🐰!
Thanks so much! It was a good weekend!
It's is a beautiful celebración.
There are many different traditions that can be included in Easter celebrations!
I love how you pick the plate, bowl and the table runner with the identical color and pattern, they match so well and look so nice.
Happy Easter my friend. ;)

That's one good things about the technology today, keeping family together even when miles apart.
I love it! Hardly a day goes by that we don't share what we are doing with each other.

Greetings @melinda010100, beautiful post and beautiful Easter customs and rituals... Wow, that Easter cake looks delicious mmm... a big hug for you...!!!
Thanks! I used to enjoy making Easter baskets filled with treats for the kids and hiding eggs for them to find! The focus of traditions change over the years.
!INDEED
😀
It's all about happiness, everyone can feel it.
The bread looks so delicious, later, we will gather as a family to enjoy a cup of coffee and cake together and make the most of this special day.
Happy Easter Mom♥️
Simple and beautiful tradition, what's most important is a tie with the family during this time. As you said, even if the whole family is not gathered around the table the connection this way or another must be there. ❤️
Thanks! Flexible holidays work best for all of us to be together. It doesn't have to be on the day the calendar says it must be!
Looking nice

Thanks!
These are quite beautiful. Tenks for sharing...
Happy Easter...
Thanks! ♥️
I was not aware of the relationship between calla lilies and the celebration of Easter, it is fascinating how concepts that in principle have nothing to do with each other are associated. In Spain, we do share the tradition of hard-boiled eggs and bread, although we combine them in a single piece and call them "monas de Pascua". Unlike yours, the bread dough is sweetened. The ones you show us look delicious. I'm glad you enjoyed a good Easter sharing with your children, even if you weren't together you did it in spirit. Best regards.

What a beautiful celebration! Your table looks beautiful and exquisite.
Have a happy and prosperous week, dear friend @melinda010100
Thanks so much! I rather miss the days when the kids were small and we could have an Easter egg hunt in the yard.
Beautiful flowers and beautiful your table, I'm glad you are keeping the tradition so lovingly. I didn't know about the lilies, maybe if I can get some next year I can beautify the house with them. Thank you Melinda ❤️
Any sort of white lily is lovely at Easter time! Many churches decorate with them.
The events that happen are special and exciting, and it's always nice to celebrate with family.
Holidays are such fun!
Wow, how delicious everything looks! 😍😋
I love the look of your table with your dishes of eggs and cakes. Beautiful!
It really is nice that technology has made it where we can feel closer, even when we can't be closer.
Sounds like a lovely day.
That sounds great! What a great way to spend Easter!
How did you know that Katherine Hepburn is one of my all time favorite actresses? She was so amazing... She could do some of the funniest comedy and the most serious drama. And she was gorgeous! Did you ever see Bringing Up Baby she did with Cary Grant? That was such a funny movie!
I love her, too! There will never be anyone that compare. I think I have seen most of her films. It's probably time to watch a few again and Bringing Up Baby would be a good place to start!
Everything looks festive. I didn't know about calla lilies, we have dried olive branches, and the eggs are painted. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to take pictures because I was cooking the traditional jelly and ham :)
Sounds like a happy Easter at your house. Ham is traditional for us, too.
