These Easter egg nests (or ‘Haystacks’ if you’re eating them at any other time of year) always remind me of a very special teacher I had in high school. I had this particular teacher for all four years of high school, because she taught my early-morning seminary class (a scripture study class) before school. We call her “Sister T.” Sister T. is sweet and remarkable. She managed to lovingly teach our class of unruly teenagers for an hour each day starting at 6:45am for the duration of my high school career.

Everyone had a birthday cake from her on their birthday or half-birthday, and they were always warm with melt-y frosting. She would wake up early to bake them before we came to class!
