Easter 2013: You Can Have Your Bunny Cake

It's hard to believe that we are now at the end of another Easter Day. It began with our traditional chocolate egg hunt, then we were off to the 9 AM church service. After church, we had a delicious brunch at our new neighborhood cafe.

Back at home, each kid got to search for their three Easter baskets. Then it was time to set the table and get ready for Easter dinner with our wonderful, dear friends. I think we've celebrated Easter together for at least the past 11 years.

Happy Easter and Happy Spring!

Chocolate Bunny Melt Down

This is it!  I'm staring at 3 huge chocolate bunnies leftover from Easter.  I'm trying to resist. Resist. Resist.  Resist.  They are calling to me in that chocolate bunny way.  It's mid morning, and my guard is down.

I have got to stop.  I vowed after Halloween, that as soon as the Halloween candy was gone, I was going to be on the candy wagon.  

Then, the Halloween candy wagon plowed right into the Christmas candy wagon, creating havoc as it rolled into Valentine's Day.  

Now, Easter is staring me right in the eye with 6 little delicious, chocolate eyes of its own.

Aren't the children supposed to wolf these bunnies down?  If one little playground-tainted hand unwrapped one and a sniffly mouth bit off a set of ears, I'd be able to throw it away.  

I'm not desperate enough to nibble on germ infested, decapitated bunnies.  To resist or cave?   I think you know where this is going.
