It's amazing to me how much a small group of people can accomplish-- if they REALLY put their minds to it. My sister Deena is the heart of this operation -- over 1200 half-pound, hand-crafted chocolate covered Easter Eggs...
|
The entire church hall, AND kitchen, are covered with plastic... |
|
Deena's granddaughter, Madeline, was visiting on this day -- and she was just a little bored... |
|
I cannot tell you how wonderful this room smelled... |
|
There were six flavors. Chocolate, vanilla, coconut, walnut, peanut butter. (maybe there were only five flavors). |
|
Each egg is individually weighed. |
|
Then covered with chocolate... |
|
Finally, packed into plastic corsage boxes. The different color flower on top depicts the flavor. (SO clever!) |
Selling these beautiful, delicious Chocolate Easter eggs (for $7 each) is a big fundraiser for the Methodist Church in McCausland, Iowa. My sister Deena has been leading this team for many years -- and they get better and better.
I stopped in that day to witness this incredible operation. (I had no intention of actually helping)..
But, I DID end up helping. Sort of. In my own way...
