Ollie's Easter Adventure
This Easter, Ollie the Oyster traded his shucking glove for a pair of floppy bunny ears, and things got delightfully festive in Franklin Harbour.
The morning dawned with a sparkle on the water and a mission: to find the elusive Golden Egg hidden among the grassy seabeds. Legend has it, this magical egg grants perfect shucks and legendary chef skills to its finder. Naturally, Ollie was all in for the challenge.
With a basket in hand, Ollie bounded across the sandbanks, a spring in his step—quite literally. Along the way, he met his trusty mates:
-
Marley the Mollusc, who slipped him a clue wrapped in seaweed.
-
Shelly the Snapper, who lent him a snorkel (don’t ask how an oyster pulls that off).
-
Carmen the Crab, who shared her famous hot cross bun mignonette (surprisingly delicious).
After dodging rogue seaweed, a cheeky current, and a parade of jellyfish, Ollie spotted a glint beneath a shimmering shell. Could it be? With a gentle pry and a satisfying click, there it was: the Golden Egg, nestled on a perfect bed of lemon zest and love.
Ollie let out a triumphant “Shuck Yeah!” and skipped home to share the magic with his mates.
This Easter, whether you’re serving oysters on ice, hosting an egg hunt, or simply chasing a bit of joy, you’re carrying a piece of Ollie’s adventure with every dozen.
