Can you believe this weekend is Easter already?
A long weekend with a family gathering no doubt.  Maybe it’s another turkey holiday for you, or is it ham.
For us Easter has always been fried home smoked ham and eggs.  Then there are the desserts.
The ultimate chocolate dish with Cool Whip, aka Dixieland Delight, aka s-e-x in a pan has always been a favorite.  But there are so many tasty looking recipes floating around that I would love to try.

30 amazing Easter desserts it’s okay to get excited about

 

It’s also time to colour eggs and get ready for the Easter Bunny’s visit.  I can’t deny that I have always wondered why a bunny was given the job of egg delivery for Easter.  I always assumed it was because it is easier to find a kind and friendly rabbit since most chickens are a bit cranky, but that is not the case at all.   Why is there an Easter Bunny and not an Easter Chicken?

Easter egg hunts are always a highlight for me.  I can’t say that I do not like chocolate.  I gladly offer to help out by eating the gathered treats that our kids don’t like, haha.
If you are wondering what to wish for from the long eared basket filler, aka the Easter Bunny.  Here are the top picks for this year.

24 of the Best Chocolate Easter Eggs You Can Buy This Year

 

Easter is the one time of the year we have purchased eggs in our house since my wife likes white eggs for colouring and I only have brown layers.
So what is the best way to add colour to hen fruit?
We have always used food colouring in water with a little bit of vinegar, and yes it does work on brown eggs too, haha.  I tried the shaving cream and food colouring method last year, but it didn’t work great and you can’t eat eggs coloured that way either.
There are so many neat ways to dress up cackleberries.  Here are a few neat ones.
Just take note that some of the methods do create beautiful/neat results, but are not eatable.
