Ok now onto a serious matter…I may be mistaken but isn’t the Easter Bunny a freaking vegetarian? Actually isn’t he technically a vegan? All he eats are salads right? He absolutely adores carrots, celery, beets and lettuces.
Now I ask you….why oh WHY do we feel like it’s not Easter without a basket full of chocolate? I don’t keep chocolate in the house and my kids don’t get to eat it very often. But I went merrily into the Target near our house and filled a shopping cart with Reese cups wrapped in pastel tin foil and m&m’s that look like birds eggs ( it’s ok I got the dark chocolate kind so they’re “healthy” m&m’s)
I also bought Addison a solid chocolate bunny to put in her Easter bucket. It’s not huge but it’s nothing but a brick of chocolate molded to look like a rabbit. Because my almost 8 yr old daughter neeeeds more of a reason to act like a spaz.
Yeah she needs a solid brick of chocolate about as much as my waistline needs all of the chocolatey treats that I will be snarfing this week. Hey I only bought them in the name of tradition.
You know what would be funny? If I just decided to forgo the candy and just buy a veggie tray.
What do you think Addison would say if she came out Sunday morning only to find a veggie tray in the middle of the living room floor? Something tells me that wouldn’t go over very well.
Happy Easter! Have a beet!
I think there would be an uprising of titanic proportions.
While I was out buying Easter goodies in the form of chocolate I stopped at Lifeway and bought a couple of books, some ressurrection eggs and a lamb Webkinz. I also went to Target and got the girls some new spring pj’s and Madagascar 2.
I blame Target. With all of their cheerful spring displays and trendy items. I still maintain my theory that there is a Target conspiracy. They are taking over the world with their trendy affordable products and brilliant marketing techniques. I mean who doesn’t love a montage of household products? Target…just know this…I am onto you.

LOL. I can only imagine that a veggie tray on Easter morning would go over just about as well as me attempting to go swimsuit shopping right after eating an entire chocolate bunny. You blame target, I blame those blasted flourescent lights.
So funny! And so true. Hey, I made paper carrots last year and then put candy in them. Does that count?
It gets better when they are older. Both my kids are very practical and just want the $$ I would spend on candy instead. God I love those kids.
Target…it gets me EVERY time!
Happy Easter!
LOL yeah the veggie tray would not go over well here either!!!
