  • We didn't celebrate holidays when I was a kid so I missed out on everything Easter related. I've done a few egg hunts as an adult and those are a lot of fun.

  • Our toddler has an Easter basket that is filled with some small goodies. This year I didn’t buy anything myself, but grandparents sent some candy and toys. We do a small egg hunt just around the house with small candy and snacks inside. No meanings behind anything. We also don’t do the Easter bunny or any other fantasy being with her. She knows they are for the holiday (at least with Santa) but is too young to make a connection that they are the ones supposedly bringing the gifts. I’ve mentioned a few times that they are pretend like bluey but I don’t think she has any understanding. For myself, I like to get a big bag of jellybeans.

  • For me it was always just chocolate and the family meal. And now it's that, plus a way to mark the seasons I suppose.

    • That's a good point re seasons. What family meal do you have?

      • Usually turkey or a ham with a spread of roasted or steamed veggies. My brother likes to make deviled eggs, so he brings those over. It's simple, but I love the ritual of it! For the fall and winter family meals I also like to make a cauliflower casserole which is layers of cauliflower, sour cream, and Hungarian sausage. That feels too rich for a spring meal though.

  • I've always loved chocolate so as a kid I used to get really excited about Easter because y'know... chocolate. Ive got some really nice memories from it, getting Easter eggs and decorating eggs at school. For me it's just bank holidays and delicious food like hot cross buns.
