Purple Flower Power Egg
My pets are in awe of these beautiful eggs—they would love to try to paint their own one year. Easter and spring are times of joy as the earth awakens, plants are pushing forth from the soil, and the days are becoming warmer. Many baby animals are born in the spring, and life is burgeoning. May these eggs bring you joy and be a reminder of the earth renewing itself.

"Oh, Lorelei! You know that dark grey you see as soon as you turn off the lights—just before complete darkness takes over or your eyes adjust to the lack of light?" asked Lucky.
"Er—no, but yes?"
"It has a name! It's known as 'Eigengrau'. It's a German word meaning 'intrinsic grey'".
"Wow!"

"That sounds like a great idea, Lorelei!"

Balancing an endless orb, sealed with anticipation of what could possibly be in that window? A universe to explore? Kitchen? Brewery? Does it matter to an explorer, not one whit, for you're ready for whatever may come!

@ Chimaeras - Parrot universe
"I'm going to buy a framed print of that amazing optical illusion, Arlo," said Lorelei. "It'll go well with my glass maple leaf paperweight from Canada, and my model of Edinburgh Castle from when we went to Scotland."
"That sounds like a nice collection of mementoes, Lorelei!"
Chimaeras - Parrot universe
What just happened? One minute I'm on the street and the next I am transported to a space and time where parrots rule. What further madness awaits?

@ Chimaera - Candlelight Dinner?
“If there's time at the end when we get back tonight, I might do some initial sketches for a surreal painting," Jewels said, offering Lorelei a toffee from the bag and then unwrapping one for herself.
“That sounds like a good plan, Jewels!" said Lorelei.
Chimaera - Candlelight Dinner?
Is it real? Or just a clever ruse to confuse? The candle of eternal flame, or just a chalk drawing done in 3-D street art?

What's that word? It looks like picnic, but it's got a few different letters?
It's panic. It means that you feel like you need to run away.
But I don't want to run away, I want to read what happens next, will she eat the porridge or not?

@ Chimaera - Parchment and Type
“Do you remember that scene in Johnny English Strikes Again where English thinks he's in a VR scene but he's really out in the streets and shops in London and starts attacking someone with a baguette?" said Tilly.
Lorelei joined her in hearty laughter at the memory.
