Scavenger Hunt - Whimsy, Create, Dust, Seed or Sprout & Swing or Drop

Thanks for all the Birthday wishes last week, and all the get well messages! I'm feeling much better now. 
1. Whimsy
"Do you know where Wonderland is? It is the place you visit in your dreams, the strange and wondrous place where nothing is as it seems. " ~ Alice in Wonderland

2. Create
I finally created a new header. I used a Vol.25 Digital Eye Candy "Free to be Me" Album template. 

3. Dust
A sweet dusting of icing sugar!

4. Seed or Sprout
 Neither, we're in Autumn here in Australia. I am starting to get into Easter though. I love this vintage Easter egg box, I love the charming picture on it. My mum believes this was her's when she was little, so it's between 50 and 60 years old! These are still commonly used in Sweden where you fill it with lollies or smaller eggs. We would always receive one at Easter.

However these cosmos flowers decided to make an appearance this week. My son and I planted seeds last year and have been waiting for them to flower.

5. Swing or Drop
Both, I swing my tea egg in my cup then drop in a couple of sugar cubes, then enjoy!
