As a little pick me up I went to the store and spent an outrageous amount of money on candy. (Why is it so expensive?) I bought a cute little basket and a card and set them out before he woke up Sunday morning. As soon as Mike woke up, he looked at me and said, "Did the Easter Bunny come?" I told him that we would have to go downstairs and see, but then asked if the Easter Bunny had come for me. As we walked downstairs he told Lullabelle, "Mommy is about to be really disappointed." I did get some surprise treats later on, but I think they are mostly for Mike. :-)
The rest is really just pictures. I never really got that excited about Easter baskets because I don't really like candy. I am still munching on some old Halloween treats that I have stashed away when I want a little chocolate. My mom used to eat the chocolate bunny and it really wasn't that big of a deal. I will trade that chocolate for a big ole piece of cake (or cupcake) any day.
It may not be the PRETTIEST cake you have every seen, but it is delicious! (Yes, it is from Pinterest.)
Mike's basket of goodies:
Finally, for Easter supper, I decided to take another stab at Mama Cherbonneau's special sauce. I think it turned out a little better this time - it will take a few decades to get it right!
I am really disappointed because I had a picture of Mike sitting down to dinner, but I took it with my work phone and now I can't figure out where the picture went. I hope your Easter was filled with joy and love as well!
