Oh Dear! Oh Dear! Hello my Faiylings! I am so very busy and I have not written in so very very long! Well let me tell you what is happening - EASTER!</p>
<p>Do you know what that means - the Easter Bunny is coming and we have to get ready for the Parade and the Fair and the Easter Bonnet Competition. The Easter Bonnets are my favourite part! Every Fairy Princess keeps her bonnet a secret until the day and then we all come out to the parade in our beautiful bonnets! The Fairy Queen and her Prince judge the competition and I think mine might just win this year!</p>
<p>Shhhhh and make sure you only whisper it is a super huge secret! I am making a real live bonnet! My bunny Bounce, who you know is pink and fluffy, is going to hop around a big square bonnet and hide easter eggs! Bounce is going to have a beautiful grassy platform and some lovely little shrubs which the elves kindly gathered for me. And then I got some colours from Rainbow, some star dust from, well Stardust and some beautiful glitter from Sparkles to decorate the little eggs. And I just have to go and see Petals and Poppy to get some flowers from the forest and some long, curly ribbons to tie it under my chin from Ribbons!</p>
<p>Oh this is so exciting! I can&#8217;t wait to see how it turns out! I will be sure to tell you all about it next time! </p>
<p>Fairy Wishes and Dreams<br />
Fairy Floss xo</p>

<p>Its Blossom calling again from a land far, far away called London in the United Kingdom. Oh how lucky I have been these past 6 months. Can you believe that I have been away from Fairland for 6 months now?? How time flies – and oh how I miss the Fairy Queen and all the Fairies in our land!!! But I have some VERY VERY VERY exciting news to tell you.</p>
<p>Over Easter I was flying around just enjoying the views of our land when a little blue bird caught up to me and said the Easter Bunny needed some help. Well let me tell you, I flew straight to him to see what I could do. Turns out his poor little Easter Maid fell quite ill and wouldn’t be able to help him hand out his special chocolate coated Easter eggs to all the smiling children for Easter. I simply must help I said. So, for 4 days I went and helped the Easter Bunny hand out bundles of chocolate Easter eggs for all the boys an girls in London. </p>
<p>It was a very big job, but we had so much fun and the Easter Bunny is such a funny bunny.. Afterwards I shouted him to a big glass of carrot juice and gave him a chocolate coated carrot for Easter. He told me to send on many hugs and kisses to the children back in Australia and he hopes that you all got some really special Easter Eggs. Make sure you don’t eat them all at once though, might give you a tummy ache!</p>
<p>Happy Easter Everyone!!!</p>
<p>Lots and lots of fairy love from</p>
<p>xxoo  Blossom  ooxx</p>

<p>Hello Fairy friends!</p></div>
<div></div>
<div>It is so great to be  back home with all the Fairies in Fairyland. I had a wonderful year  living by the sea. I  lived in a cute little cottage overlooking the  ocean. It was a beautiful view! I swam nearly every day but had to be  careful my delicate wings didn&#8217;t get soaked.</div>
<div></div>
<div>I  spent most of my time painting colourful pictures for my family and  friends back in Fairyland. I used all the colours of the rainbow. One of  my favourite experiences was when Fairy Princess Seashell visited me and took me to  visit her underwater friends. I met beautiful mermaids, fish of all  shapes and colours, and even a family of whales. They were so big and  magnificent! I hope to go back and visit them all again soon but for now  I&#8217;m glad to be home <img src='http://fairyqueen.com.au/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </div>
<div>Love and kisses!!</div>

The one and only  Easter Bunny gave o</em><em>ur very own Fairy Princess Buttons the &#8220;very  special, very secret, very delicious&#8221; (I was quoting the Easter Bunny  there) recipe for the Hot Cross Buns he and his mother eat over the  Easter period.  Buttons came running to me this very morning, jumping  with excitement, telling me all about her visit from the Bunny and how  he had imparted the magical gift of his special recipe. She asked me if I  could put it up in our blog, so that you can all practise a little  before Easter, and maybe make some buns to leave out for the Easter  Bunny when he comes to hide some eggs at your house!</em></p>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div><em>Are you ready? Here it is!</em></div>
<div>INGREDIENTS:</div>
<div>750g plain flour</div>
<div>1/2 teaspoon  salt</div>
<div>250g currants*</div>
<div>300ml milk</div>
<div>3 eggs,  beaten</div>
<div>1 egg, beaten, for glazing</div>
<div>2 sachets dried  yeast</div>
<div>2 tablespoons mixed spice*</div>
<div>125g butter</div>
<div>100g  brown sugar</div>
<div>Paste for crosses: 1/4 cup flour  mixed with a little cold water</div>
<div>METHOD:</div>
<div>- Put  the flour, yeast, salt, mixed spice and currents into a bowl  and make a  well in the centre.</div>
<div>- Melt the butter and add the milk  together with the sugar. Warm  to blood temperature the same as your  fingers - yeast is very  temperature sensitive.</div>
<div>- Pour the milk  and butter mixture into the well and add the  beaten eggs.</div>
<div>- Mix until a  soft dough is formed.</div>
<div>- Turn out into a lightly floured board and knead  until the dough  is very elastic (about 15 minutes).</div>
<div>- Place the  dough in a lightly greased bowl and allow to rise in a  warm place for  about 90 minutes until the dough has doubled in volume.</div>
<div>- Preheat  the oven to 200 degrees C.</div>
<div>- Turn the dough out onto a lightly  floured board and knead again  for a few minutes.</div>
<div>- Divide the mixture into  12 pieces and form each one into a bun  shape.</div>
<div>- Place onto a  greased tray and leave for approximately 15 minutes  until doubled in  bulk.</div>
<div>- Mix together the flour and water for the crosses and  pipe onto  the buns.</div>
<div>- Brush with egg glaze.</div>
<div>- Bake for  approximately 15 minutes and cool on a wire rack.</div>
<div>*Some  cooks wanted these ingredients left out.</div>
<div><em>So, make, eat, and enjoy!!!</em></div>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div><em>Fairy hugs,</em></div>
<div><em><br />
</em></div>
<div><em>The Fairy Queen</em></div>
<div><em>(well, Fairy Princess Buttons and The Easter Bunny really!)</em></div>
<div><em>XOXOXOXOXO</em></div>
<div>Oh, PS: Buttons told me that the Easter Bunny drank Green Tea with  her! Fancy that!</div>

Have you heard? Fairy Princess Miabelle and Sir Pixie Thomason got married! Miabelle is one of the most crafty bell makers here in Fairyland. She twists and curves the most amazing bells of all different shapes and sizes you could ever imagine. Thomason is our book keeper who lives down on the edge of Fantasy Forest. Thomason has EVERY book you could EVER dream of - everything from Harry Potter all the way to Thomas the Tank Engine (which is my favourite book).</p>
<p>Miabelle and Thomason shared such a magical day and were married - I was luckily enough to help Miabelle choose and collate all of her flowers for the bridal party. There were colours of every variety - the bright red rose, white and yellow lillies, purple daisies, bright blue and pink orchids - oh I could go on and on. It was such a magical wedding - butterflies flew through the crowd, Fairy Princess Rainbow made one of the most MAGNIFICENT rainbows I have ever seen - and Fairy Princess Sunset made sure that the skyline was filled with beautiful colours of orange and purple. But this is not the ONLY exciting news, oh no no no, my little fairy friends&#8230;..</p>
<p>The Fairy Queen has made a special announcement that Miabelle and Thomason have opened a new shop within Fairyland - oh this is so so so exciting - the name of the store - you will not believe this - it&#8217;s called &#8216;SUNSHINE WHISPERS&#8217;. It&#8217;s a brand new store filled with the MOST MAGICAL books you can ever imagine. I have heard that when you enter the store and pick up a book to start reading - you are taken to a magical little place of your own filled with sunshine, and the book reads to you in whispers. How amazing does this sound? Oooooh I am so fairy fairy excited - I must leave you now and run down there to try and get in!!!</p>
<p>Many kisses from Blossom</p>
<p>xxooxx</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello friends and fairies!<a href="http://fairyqueen.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/painted-lady-butterfly.jpg" rel="lightbox[208]"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-209" title="painted-lady-butterfly" src="http://fairyqueen.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/painted-lady-butterfly-300x234.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="234" /></a></p>
<p>Blossom here, signing in to say hello from the other side of the world in London. That&#8217;s right - after 228 years of full-time service amongst the beautiful clouds of Fairyland, I have decided to have a bit of a holiday and sprinkle my Fairy dust across other parts of the world. I&#8217;ve met some wonderful people along the way who are helping me feel very welcome here!! The most spectacular thing happened the other day when I was visiting Big Ben the clock tower - a tiny little yellow butterfly whispered in my ear that the sun is shining so brightly back in Australia that you&#8217;re all out and about playing in the sand on the beaches!! The butterfly said that the sun is shining soooo brightly because you&#8217;re all so happy and are sending those wishes up to Fairyland before you go to bed. I gave the butterfly a little kiss and she went on her way fluttering through the air. I hope you all keep wishing and sending them up to Fairyland as the fairies there hear them all the time and always try their hardest to make them come true.</p>

Hey Hey Fairy Friends,

<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Camp Quality" href="http://www.campquality.org.au/public/home.aspx" target="_blank"><img class="size-medium wp-image-206 aligncenter" title="camp-quality" src="http://fairyqueen.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/camp-quality.bmp" alt="" width="81" height="107" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">Hey Hey Fairy Friends,</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">Well last weekend I attended a VERY special camp that is very near to my fairy heart. The camp I am talking about is </span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">Camp</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">Quality</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">. A camp where children who aren&#8217;t feeling very well attend and have a fabulous weekend full of games and activities. So I flittered on in to the fabulous mountains of Mt Tambourine. The views there are absolutely amazing and very pretty. I can see that all of our wildlife in </span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">Queensland</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;"> have been looking after our trees and forest very well. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">The Crystal Castle Fairies left a note for all the children attending </span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">Camp</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">Quality</span><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;"> saying that we would drop by this very day to laugh and smile and play all of their troubles away. Let me tell you, if you don&#8217;t think boys giggle, you are misguided. Three handsome little boys came and sat with me and giggled their heads off. &#8220;We&#8217;re the troublemakers because we giggle too much&#8221; they all told me.. I giggled too. They told me later on in the evening that they were holding a concert that night and they would all get to dress up. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">There was so much to see and do at the camp and I wished I could have spent the whole night there. They had a jumping castle, a trampoline, and a heap of games to play. We played Duck Duck Goose for AGES and of course I was always chosen to be the goose, so I had to run lots and lots and lots and lots! </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">That night, when I got home I dreamt of their concert and saw them all dressed up! One was a Man in a Suit, another was an Army Officer and the other little boy was dressed as the Karate Kid - they told me that I could come as a Police Fairy and could just change from my Fairy clothing, and just keep changing roles because I&#8217;m magical. I might play dressups tomorrow night when I got home actually. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #333333;">All of these beautiful children touched my heart deeply and I wish them all the sweetest dreams and magical days. They were all precious in their own ways and a little boy (Jai) who was about four years old, whispered in my ear to tell the Fairies back in Fairyland that he makes a wish upon a star every night and that he thinks they are all beautiful and he sees them in his dreams. So be sure to wish upon those stars and smile, because I hear they are contagious.</span></p>
<p>Lots of Fairy hugs and love to you all,</p>
<p><em>Fairy Princess Blossom</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My darling fairy friends, do I have a wonderful idea for you!</p>
<p>You know  how much fun it is to dance the Fairy Pokey?! Well why not make some Fairy Pokey  biscuits with Mummy or Daddy or Aunty or Uncle or Grandma or Grandpa? (phew!).</p>
<p>These biscuits are scrumdiddliumptious and very easy to bake. Cinnamon  helped me make some today and all the fairies, unicorns, birds, animals and  other creatures had them for afternoon tea. Then we spent the rest of the  afternoon dancing the Fairy Pokey - what fun!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the  recipe:</p>
<p>Fairy Pokey Biscuits</p>
<p>Makes 30</p>
<p>Ingredients:<br />
125g  butter, softened<br />
1/2 cup caster sugar<br />
1 tablespoon golden syrup<br />
1  tablespoon milk<br />
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda<br />
1 1/2 cups plain  flour</p>
<p>Method:<br />
Preheat oven to 180?C (160?C Fan Forced). Line 2 large  baking trays with baking paper.</p>
<p>Using an electric mixer, beat butter   and sugar until light and creamy. Place golden syrup and milk into a heatproof  microwave-safe jug. Microwave for 20 to 30 seconds on HIGH (100%) power or until  hot. Stir in bicarbonate of soda (mixture will bubble up). Get an adult to help  you with this part!</p>
<p>Add warm milk mixture to butter mixture. Stir until  well combined. Sift flour over batter. Mix well.</p>
<p>Roll 2 teaspoonfuls of  mixture at a time into balls. Place onto prepared baking trays, allowing a  little room for spreading. Gently press biscuits down with a floured fork. Bake  for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden and firm (springy) to the touch. Stand on  trays for 3 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an  airtight container at room temperature.</p>
<p>NB: If you don&#8217;t have a  microwave you can heat the milk and golden syrup in a small saucepan on the  stove. Also, remember that the biscuits will firm up more when cooled.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>Baking is ever so much fun and you get to eat  what you make at the end - yum! Also, I tell you what, Mum will be so grateful  if you help clean up afterward. You get it done twice as fast then there&#8217;s much  more time to dance the Fairy Pokey - yay!!</p>
<p>Lots of love (freshly  baked)<br />
