Thread Name: Easter Eggs, Bonnets, & Other Customs
Subject: RE: Easter Eggs, Bonnets, & Other Customs
Yes, Jeri, the 'finding the Easter Basket' full of chocolate and gooies was a big deal for me too. Had to wait for the brother and sister to actually hunt for the eggs hidden in the house.
There was often a community or church sponsored egg hunt too. The 'hunt' for the littlest kids was easy, more like a 'scramble'. The hiding places got more difficult as the age group got older too.
Nothing quite like a sugar high first thing in the Morning!
Did everybody get a hollow milk chocolate rabbit? The first thing we did was bite off the ears. Eyes next, then nose.
And we shall never forget PEEPS! LOL
