Which Came First, The Chicken or the Egg?

'Tis the season.
Easter
 and Ostara are linked through their shared celebration of spring, renewal, and rebirth. 
Easter, a Christian holiday, commemorates the resurrection of Jesus, while Ostara, a pagan holiday, honors the spring equinox and the awakening of natureBoth holidays utilize similar symbols, like eggs and rabbits, which represent fertility and new life. 

Me? I just like bunnies and colored eggs with a few chicks sprinkled about.


I  went around the house, opened cupboards and boxes, and pulled what looked "Eastery": a sequinned egg, a Depression glass rabbit with a basket egg holder, and my prized possession, an Easter card from my six-year-old brother in 1955 to his 10-month-old sister—me.  

Decopaged, glitter, felt, and one big crocheted egg.
