Easter Monday was domestically the same as all other days during lockdown, but we enjoyed a gift of traditional Pace (Pasque = Easter) eggs which had been hard boiled and dyed by a parishioner.
The main pressures were lifted for a few hours as the phone and e-mails stopped for the first time for a month.
My sister's Greek-Cypriot mother-in-law showed me how to do the traditional red eggs but I couldn't get to the warehouse which sells the powder this time. Instead we made do with red food dye. The two little boys across the road were fascinated.
