When I was little, my nuclear family would wake up and have scrambled eggs and sausage for breakfast and do a mini egg hunt in the yard. There would be a chocolate bunny with little candies like M&Ms around and assorted jellybean in an Easter basket. Before Easter each year we would decorate hard boiled eggs. As we got older we would get coloring books or reading books. We would still get a chocolate bunny and the assorted candies. Not a lot though. The one thing that never changed was going over to grandma’s house for Easter dinner. We would have a lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs or a bird of some kind. If for some Easter’s we would have a lamb portion. There was another egg hunt there too. Plus an Easter basket was given to all the kids. When the family got older and had families, the numbers shrunk little by little. But the core value stayed. Come to the family dinner if you can. My current Easter tradition is to a closer family friend for a dinner. What’s served changes year by year. My five it candy are Ferrero Rocher Chocolate, Mounds and Almond Joys
