Sunday, March 26 at Sano Public Hall
Midori Yoshida, who lived in Germany for 9 years, had a class on making Easter eggs and lemon cakes, a common tradition of Easter celebrations in Germany this time of year.

How to Make Easter Eggs
From the whiteboard
Sand the edges of egg shell with sandpaper.	?
Make ?a 5-7 mm hole and break the yolk. Then blow air through the hole on top to remove the contents.	?
Let the eggs dry.	?
When you’ve finished painting the Easter egg is complete!	?
Below are German style lemon cakes containing?the egg whites and yolks from the Easter eggs. Participants are putting icing on a freshly baked lemon cake. What a pleasant aroma!
