The long Easter weekend is, in a way, the celebration of spring. We take the time to pause for a moment, enjoy a good meal (or several!), and start simmering the thousand and one projects for the months to come.
We’re talking creativity, renewal… and chocolate. Obviously 🐣

Spring projects
Let your creativity run wild by decorating your eggs, and embrace renewal with seed bombs to toss joyfully, here and there.
Traditional Easter eggs, reinvented! Why not create magnificent works of art using what nature has to offer: plant powders, spices, small plants…
We want to start just writing about it.
I want to create too!
A few tablespoons of flower seeds, some soil, clay, and a dash of water are all you need to make several seed bombs!
Enough to re-bloom some sad street corners, a little roadside, and a vacant lot… imagine what would happen if we all made some.
It would be beautiful, wouldn't it?

All about chocolate
Hard to miss!
Hot Chagalat
This recipe is a must for warming the heart while giving yourself a boost! Thanks to its tonic effect and beautiful hazelnut color, chaga is very popular as a coffee substitute. In traditional herbalism, it is said to be adaptogenic: it supports the body and mind in the face of change and stress.

Chocolate Body Butter (a.k.a. the Decadent)
Here's my super easy recipe for choco-cocoa body butter, with ylang-ylang, sweet orange, and vanilla. It's decadent, creamy, soothing, nourishing, and... a little bit aphrodisiac, haha! And what about its smell... It smells like the seventh HEAVEN.
