This is the first installment of a monthly tradition called "12 on the 12th".  The idea was given to me from the Daily Breakfast podcast, where it was suggested that on the 12th of each month everyone takes a camera with them and takes twelve pictures throughout their day - a photographic "A day in the life of…".  Today was pretty busy and boring - work, car repairs & errands, but as you can see from my pictures, my day was filled with beauty.

I needed to get a close-up of these. These are giant Easter Eggs made out of chocolate. They’re hollow, filled with all sorts of candies inside!
