For April I’m challenging myself to an A-Z photo a day excluding Sundays and in addition to any regular posts that come to be. Disclaimer: this has been a lot more than a photo a day. It has been more like a theme for the day.
Today is Monday April 28th and we are on the letter X. For this letter I’m deferring to the Russian Alphabet.
X is for Христос, Christ, our Lord, Master, in Russian. During Easter we use the X and B on our Sweet Cheese that we make for a spread on our Easter Bread. The X is for Christ and the B is for Risen. Christ is Risen, Христос воскрес! XB is used on other Russian items at Easter.



Two more days and two more letters. Thanks for visiting these posts. We are in the last few days of April. We have had warm dry days here in our part of the state. People are cheerful as they are out and about in the sunshine. Lots of yard work getting done, too.
Last Friday and Saturday we participated in a flea market in town to try to sell off some X-tra stuff. It wasn’t as successful as we would have liked but we came out ahead and some stuff is gone.

Hope you have an X-cellent week ahead!






Clever use of the Xtra X’s :-)! We are almost to the finish line!!
I’m glad. you sold a few things. This was a tough letter. Even though it’s a lot of pressure to write I end up enjoying it and like having a collection of thoughts gathered on a particular topic. Have a great day!
…Ellen, you did an “Xcellent” job with “X,” not an easy letter.
He is risen indeed!
You have your things for the flea market nicely displayed, Ellen. We did one yard sale and that was enough for me. 🙂
An Xcellent use of the letter X! Christ is risen!
X was a hard one but you managed well.
He is indeed risen.
